TedZep Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 The Flyers just tied their franchise "record" with 9 wins after trailing entering the 3rd period. I'm trying to find what team has the most in the regular season, but my Google-fu is apparently weak tonight. Does anyone have a line on that? Thanks!

Podein25 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Damn, Google is fast.A guy I know who works in public health uses Google to track and project flu trends because it is faster (and more reliable) than the WHO or local (provincial) public health officials.

jammer2 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 @TedZep I did find this, the biggest single game 3rd period comeback in NHL history. The honour goes to the 2000 St.Louis blues.....one other team had a 5 goal comeback, but the Blues did it the quickest.... November 29, 2000 "The Blues came back from a 5-0 deficit in the third period to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 6-5 in overtime. It was only the second time a team has come back such a large deficit in the third period to win a game. The Blues scored their six goals in 15 minutes and 27 seconds, making it the fastest time a team has come back from a five-goal deficit in NHL history." What a beauty of a game that must have been to see!! Great moments in St.Louis Blues history....a legit candidate for the shortest book ever written thread if I ever saw one.....LMAO!! http://blues.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=34437 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedZep Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Great, so now I have an infinite feedback loop where if I google my question again it comes back with my original question, which only pushes the question - and not the answer - higher. Coming back from 5 goals down is impressive. Of course, the greatest comeback in playoff history is the Flyers down 3 goals to 0, 3 games to 0, against the Bruins, and they win the game and the series. I sent a request to Elias Sports Bureau, maybe they'll answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 @jammer2 I think I recall the Kings? maybe making a 3rd period comeback in the playoffs down 5 goals. I believe it was 5-0 and their owner left in disgust...and missed an incredible comeback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
