I understand that this is a different situation, but I think it might be worth calling.

I just checked on Expedia on a January weekday fare (I picked YYZ-SFO), and the cost difference with an overnight stopover in MSP was only about $50. Not a lot of money to get to see family and have a confirmed seat the next morning!
