It may have seemed like an impossible task, but the Mission Outlaws hockey squad came all the way back to defeated the Ridge Meadows Flames four games to three in the first round of the playoffs.
The Outlaws fell behind three games to nothing and looked like they would bow out of the playoffs.
However, the local squad won two straight overtime games and then shut out the Flames 3-0 to set up a seventh and deciding game in Mission on Saturday night.
It looked grim early as the Flames took a 1-0 lead in the first minute, but the Outlaws scored four unanswered goals to win the contest 4-1.
Mission will now host the Abbotsford Pilots in the second round of the playoffs.
