I think it's more a precedent. Had anyone started 2 in a row before LT's shutouts? (Chuck was healthy and back when LT got his last start, iirc) So, shutout = start next game. Plus goaltending was the least of our worries the other night. Chuck did fine. They got 2 seeing eye shots to go in and we could only muster 1, while outplaying them pretty handily.
