By the Numbers: A Look at the Calgary Flames’ 2025 Stats – The Win Column

The 2025 calendar year has officially come to an end, perhaps mercifully for the Calgary Flames. It’s been a year of ups and downs for the Flames, and the stats back that up. The organization had a heartbreaking end to the 2024-25 season, missing the playoffs by one tiebreaker, and then had the worst start in franchise history in 2025-26.

So after a wild twelve months in Calgary, here’s what the Flames’ stats look like from January 1st to December 31st.

Team stats

First, let’s take a look at how the Flames performed as a team in 2025. We look at every game played between January 1 and December 31. In total, the Flames played 84 games in 2025, all in the regular season of course.

Overall record

The Flames’ ranks here aren’t all that surprising. This is a team that was in the middle of the pack all season last year and is at the bottom this season. That leads to a team finishing in the bottom half of the league in points and wins in 2025, but not in the bottom 10. Is there anything more blazing than that?

In total, the Flames won 41 of their 85 games in 2025, losing 44 times. 20 of the 31 teams had more wins than Calgary in 2025, while 19 of the 31 teams had a better points percentage than Calgary. Not terrible or one of the worst in the league when it comes to winning hockey games, but definitely not good either. Then again, is there anything more blazing than ending 2025 with an overall record of 41 wins and 44 losses?

One category that stands out is that the Flames lost the 12th most games in overtime/shootouts in 2025. This has been a trend with this team for years, as they have consistently struggled to get extra points in overtime since Johnny Gaudreau left the team.

Team numbers

Next, let’s take a look at the Flames’ overall team numbers in special teams, scoring, defense and goaltending.

These figures immediately tell a fairly clear story. The Flames are absolutely atrocious offensively under Ryan Huska, but they are very solid on defense and in goal. The Flames finished the 2025 calendar year with the 26th-ranked power play in the NHL, better than just seven other teams. Conversely, their penalty kill was the seventh best in the NHL. It’s not hard to see where this team and their coaching staff excel.

When it comes to scoring goals on one side and preventing them on the other, the story is much the same. The Flames’ offense was terrible in 2025, finishing as the second-worst offense in the entire NHL with just 2.68 goals per game. The Flames were one of only three teams in the league to finish under 2.7 goals per game. For reference, the Colorado Avalanche scored 3.64 goals per game in 2025, almost a full goal more than the Flames.

Defensively, however, the Flames were incredibly strong, conceding just 2.84 goals per game. That total was ninth-best in the league. Funnily enough, all eight teams that were ahead of the Flames in goals against are included in the 2024-25 playoffs, and seven of the eight are currently in the playoffs.

Individual statistics

Next, let’s take a look at the Flames’ individual stats in 2025, from who scored the most goals to who threw the most hits.

Offensive stats

The Flames’ offense was awful last year, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t standout performances from individual players.

I think Nazem Kadri might be the Flames’ best forward, it’s just a guess. The veteran center dominated the Flames’ stats in 2025, leading in every major offensive category. Maybe Don Maloney is on to something? Not really, but even the most dedicated team tank members can’t deny how annoying Kadri is to post numbers like this about the NHL’s worst offense.

The next Flame in terms of points was Jonathan Huberdeau, who fell a whopping 20 points behind Kadri’s total and finished 2025 with just 53 points. When it comes to assists, Kadri was nine higher than the next Flame, with MacKenzie Weegar finishing 2025 with 35 assists. Goals were the only category in which Kadri was in danger of finishing second, with youngster Matt Coronato finishing in 25th place with 26, just three fewer than Kadri.

Defensive stats

Next, let’s take a look at the top defensive contributors for the Flames in 2025 when it comes to stats like hits, blocks, and total time on ice.

Just like offensively, there was one Flame who carried the burden of the defense. To no one’s surprise, that player is MacKenzie Weegar. The veteran defender is by far the best defender on the team, and the numbers back this up. He led the team in blocks, total time on ice and takeaways in 2025. He also finished with 219 hits, just four behind team leader Adam Klapka.

No other Flame averaged more than 24 minutes per night in 2025, with Rasmus Andersson coming in second with 23:49 minutes per game. Weegar is clearly the team’s workhorse on defense, and even with a slow start to the 2025-26 season, he finished the calendar year as the team’s top option for all things defense at even strength.

A year to forget

The 2025 calendar year was one to forget for the Flames, with the team failing to make the playoffs in the spring, doing next to nothing in the summer and then losing the most games in franchise history in the fall. Needless to say, 2026 couldn’t have come at a better time.
