The Vancouver Canucks scored three goals in the final minute of regulation to force overtime before right wing Kiefer Sherwood scored the game-winning goal to complete a phenomenal 6-5 comeback road win over the Dallas Stars on Tuesday.

Center Aatu Raty scored with one minute left to cut the lead to 5-3 before center Pius Suter scored goals with 30 seconds and then six seconds left to tie the game at five. Then Kiefer Sherwood scored the game-winner with 1:16 left in OT to complete the near-impossible comeback.

Per NHL Public Relations, the Canucks became the first team to win a game after losing by three goals in the final minute of regulation.

It was an amazing win for the Canucks, whose ever-so-slight hopes to qualify for the playoffs remained alive.

Meanwhile, it was a brutal loss for the Stars, with WFAA's Mike Leslie putting it into perspective.

Needless to say, fans tipped their caps to the Canucks.

The Canucks need to win out and get a lot of help to make the playoffs, but after their remarkable finish, they're still alive. Up next is a road matchup with the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday.
