Is it possible to have a shutout if you lose?
So there's a Sharks vs. Ducks game, and the sharks won 1-0. However, that 1 goal was scored when correy perry sent it 200 feet down the wrong end when Hiller went to the bench for the extra attacker on a delayed penalty. Will Hiller officially get a shutout loss on the scorecard? Or is that not possible?

If he wasn't on the ice when the goal was scored, it's not a goal against, just like empty-netters. So yes it would be a shutout. Same goes if you lose 1-0 in a shootout. I remember last year when Brodeur and Lundqvist made around 100 saves combined in a 1-0 shootout win for the Devils. Both got credited with a shutout.

He will not get a shutout as the goal was scored in regulation time. You get credit for a shutout if you lose 1-0 in a shootout loss though.

That counts as a shutout.
I think it's also a shutout if they lose in the shootout, but I'm not 100% on that.
A shutout is a goals-against of 0. If the goalie is on the bench, they don't get the goal-against.

He will not be credited with a shutout but it is possible to have a shutout if you lose in a shootout.. Lets say the game was 0-0 went into OT still 0-0 then he lost in a shootout.. Then he would have a shutout but with an overtime lose

No it is not possible. That goalie came out and they didn't switch goalies therefore even though he wasn't in it was still on his "time".
