There's a reason teams don't do that. And there's a zero per cent chance the Flames do it, because the team is run by professional hockey people.
On a Wednesday night and an 8pm start? None
But if we relax your self imposed parameters a touch, there is John Gibson.
In the second round of the 2014 playoffs with his team trailing the series 2-1 Gibson (20), who had only played in 3 NHL games to that point, started on the road in LA (eventual Cup champions) and recorded a 28 save shutout.
