A bounce-back win for the Chicago Blackhawks after an ugly start on Sunday against the Anaheim Ducks led them to be only the fifth team in NHL history to win a game after falling behind 2-0 in the opening minute.

«Chicago became the fifth team in NHL history to earn a win after falling behind 2-0 in the opening minute of a game.»
The win gives the Blackhawks a rare comeback of its kind and reminds fans this young team has fight.
Spencer Knight experienced his worst-career start, likely ever, and he continued to show resiliency against a strong Anaheim Ducks team.
We've seen Chicago mount big rallies before. The club's largest ever comeback came on October 12, 2009, when it erased a 5-0 deficit to beat the Calgary Flames 6-5 in overtime.
That shows this franchise has a history of digging in deep when the chips fall against it.
That history matters now more than ever. Chicago sits at 10-9-5 this season and is hovering in the middle of the Central Division. A comeback like this can spark belief for a group struggling with consistency. It shows they still believe in themselves even after a rough start.

Blackhawks embrace comeback culture

This kind of win feels like the Blackhawks getting their swagger back. They didn't panic after the bad start; they stuck to the game plan and clawed their way back.
For fans, this was more than a stat.
It was a reminder this franchise isn't dead. When the first minute looked ugly, Chicago responded all night. If they can ride that momentum, maybe more come-from-behind nights are ahead.
The next milestone could be staying consistently dangerous for all 60 minutes.
