Don’t call it a comeback! Actually, yeah, go ahead and call it a comeback—an impressive one, at that.

On Tuesday night, the Washington Capitals overcame a three-goal deficit to defeat the red-hot Boston Bruins in overtime. It was quite a treat for the rabid home crowd at Verizon Center in DC, and it’s sure to be remembered as a signature moment if the Caps make the playoffs.

And yet, to everyone’s surprise, the Caps fought back in the remaining 40 minutes of regulation to post three unanswered goals.

The Caps’ stunning comeback was punctuated by Eric Fehr’s spectacular game-winning overtime goal. Check it out:
