Anyone who witnessed the first 12 minutes of the Blackhawks' game against the Calgary Flames on Monday night would find it hard to believe the night ended with the Hawks at center ice raising their sticks in a victory salute.

After spotting the Flames a five-goal lead in the first 11:43, the Hawks roared back with three goals in the second and one in the third and went on to record an amazing 6-5 come-from-behind overtime victory at the United Center.
The comeback matched the biggest in NHL history, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
Brent Seabrook scored the winner 26 seconds into OT. Patrick Kane had a goal and two assists, and Patrick Sharp, John Madden, Dustin Byfuglien and Dave Bolland also scored. Brian Campbell added two assists as 10 Hawks landed on the scoresheet.
