My brother told me that there was some talk that McLellan didn't want to pull the goaltender and risk giving Johnny a hat trick. I doubt that's true but with just under 2 minutes remaining they had possession of the puck in the Flames end and I don't believe I've seen a team all year not pull their goaltender in that situation. Kind of bizarre the head coach doesn't even want to try to come back as it's not unheard of or anything and there's nothing to lose.
