Calgary Flames

State of the teamCalgary missed the playoffs for a fourth straight year and became a deadline seller. The Flames finished with 77 points, shipping out Rasmus Andersson, MacKenzie Weegar and Nazem Kadri. Matt Coronato led a modest offence as the Flames leaned further into a youth movement under coach Ryan Huska. The year also brought a farewell note: the announcement that the Saddledome's days are numbered. The youth movement got expensive in July, when Calgary signed 22-year-old defenceman Simon Nemec — acquired from New Jersey in June — to a five-year, $36.25 million contract. The new season starts tracking here at puck drop.

Team Engine

Under-the-hood numbers, season by season: faceoffs, possession (SAT% is what the analytics crowd calls Corsi; Fenwick is the same idea minus blocked shots — above 50% means this team controls play), special teams, and shot rates.

Zone Time

Offensive-zone time is the why behind shot-attempt share (SAT%) above — a team that lives in the offensive zone out-attempts opponents. The line tracks how that's moved season by season; the bar is this year's split. Based on NHL player-tracking data.
