40 shots at a 20% clip is 8 goals per game. I'm gonna have to go with door #1 here.

Was worried this was going to be a game where Elvis made 75 saves and we lose 2-1 in OT. No longer worried.

It's so weird because I like everyone on the Saturday panel individually, but for whatever reason when you put them together they just spew garbage

In fact, you're likely to have a lower shooting percentage if you take a lot of shots, because it means you're not waiting around for the perfect shot.
I suspect if you went into the numbers in detail, the Flames aren't doing too badly at scoring on high-danger shots, but they've taken a lot of low-percentage shots that drag down their average. Which is still good, as some of those shots are also going in. The scoreboard does not care how the goal was scored.

No. They need to score 7 tomorrow night too!
That or Tanev scores a hat trick in the next 3 games. All will be forgiven!

This is not like Flames teams of old who would ease up and accept the rope a dope outcome after putting 30 shots on net.

40 shots in the first 2 periods is insane. Keep the foot on the gas in the 3rd, but leave something in the tank for STL.

It's a great example of how people can lose the plot when digging into stats.
Oh, look - their shooting percentage is low, they have no finish.
Um yeah, their shooting percentage is low, but they generate a lot of shots, and as a result, a lot of goals.
So no, they don't lack finish. Results are what matters.

I need 2 more goals in the the third
Would like to see Kylington pot something. He’s been trying to force it too much lately and it’s slipping into his defensive game

I've noticed the weekend panel has turned into a competition to out-wit Bieksa, and make the coolest sounding self-depricating jokes. That is when it's not busy fondling McDavid's dingleberries.
Tonight it's all business, even with the Leafs playing. Why can't we have this every broadcast?
