    YES!

    Alexander Auld’s only shutout in the 2006-2007 season came in a 0-0 loss!

    This question has already been questioned today!

  • See Leveler:

    Certainly Yes!!!

  • road126runnr:

    Technically yes he receives a shutout for regulation play.. Even even if he lost in the shootout….

    Overtime is another question…

  • gotta luv pickles:

    Yes. Because technically no goals were scored because shootout goals don’t count as a goal. Personally, I reckon the shootout game winner should be counted as a game winner.

    yeah it happened today, the rangers played the bruins and after a scoreless overtime a stat came up on the tv saying that but goalies recorded a shutout, so even even if the rangers beat boston in a shootout both goalies got their shutouts

  • erin go bragh less:

    absolutely because it is a 0 0 game
    but that’s a excellent question
    i really only knew the answer cause it happened today to the bruins . so even even if they lost he was given a shutout in the stats
    nowi i wonder how the game winning goal is recorded

  • AMDD whacked her weave...yikes..:

    Yes, goals scored against a goalie in SO aren’t useful to his private stats.

  • Pat:

    Most certainly.The goals scored are not part of a players stats and that includes the shooter.

  • Carissa H:

    It all depends, on the score. If you go into a shootout with the score 0-0, then the winning team (goalie) gets a shutout. If the score is like 1-1, then the winning team (goalie) does NOT get a shutout.

  • NJDevils1426:

    Yes, because technically the goalie didn’t let any goals in, even if he loses. Shootout goals don’t count as a goal, as players don’t get shootout goals manifest on their stats, and it is not manifest on goalie stats as being a goal allowed.
