Remember that time Brent Sutter put 5 defencemen on the power play?

The date is Dec. 1, 2010. The Calgary Flames have lost a game 7-2 to the Vancouver Canucks. It was a chippy game - as these types of games often are - and it saw the Flames get three power plays.

Three power plays they were unsuccessful on. Actually, Mason Raymond, then of Vancouver, scored a shorthanded goal on one of them. En route to a hat trick.

It was a different time.

Sutter wasn't thrilled with how his team was performing, though, and at one point, sent out five defenceman during one of those power plays.
