Calgary hopes offense improves

The Flames are having a season to forget, with their offense letting them down and scoring only 2.17 goals per game. Nazem Kadri and Morgan Frost have scored five goals and 11 assists, but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only three skaters have three goals or more, and opponents can eliminate the hapless offense as a result.

The offense has struggled, but the defense is also a mess, allowing 3.50 goals per game. Kevin Bahl and Rasmus Andersson have combined for 1.7 defensive point shares but the rest of the unit has struggled, allowing opponents to find open shots on the net at will. In addition, goaltender Dustin Wolf has struggled with a .887 save percentage and a 3.44 goals-against average on 291 shots with -2.5 goals saved above average.

Flyers are led by a great defense

The Flyers are having a great season despite their offense struggling and scoring 2.80 goals per game. Trevor Zegras and Noah Cates have scored seven goals and 12 assists to lead the top two lines but the rest of the offense has struggled. Only two skaters have four goals or more and opponents can limit the top-heavy offense as a result.

The offense has struggled, but the defense has been incredible, allowing only 2.40 goals per game. Travis Sanheim and Cam York have combined for 1.7 defensive point shares, while Nick Seeler and Jamie Drysdale have combined for 1.2 defensive point shares to add depth to the unit. With the Flyers playing the second game of a back-to-back, the hope is that Aleksei Kolosov steps up as he is expected to make his season debut.
