In response to "Is there ever a non-desperation (like non final minute or so) situation where goalies are pulled?" by musubi

sometimes at the final five seconds of a period when the faceoff is in the other zone, but not in general no

There was a pretty famous game in the late 60s when a team needed to win by like 5 to make the playoffs, so they pulled the goalie in the second period, but it failed miserably.
