As I was reading the threads on greatest games, most emotional games,
etc. it occurred to me that perhaps a category of greatest comebacks would
be appropriate.  For example, in the mid-1980's, Lake Superior State
overcame a six goal deficit and defeated the University of Illinois at
Chicago Circle in overtime.  The Laker Coach, Frank Anazalone, began
pulling the goaltender during the SECOND period.  The Lakers would
score, he would put the goalie back and than pull him a few minutes later.
 
When he started this, much of the crowd had already left the arena
including the college president.  The only reason I stayed was because I
had bought a 50-50 ticket and they don't announce the winner until the
third period :).
 
Anyway, it was really exciting.  Any other comeback stories?
