Simply put... it was the most remarkable comeback I have ever seen in a championship game. Any sport. Any level.

One Game Left To Win For Optimist Rebels
It wasn't like Dasan Sydora needed to prove himself, again. But he did, again.
The diminutive goaltender was superb in making 29 saves for the Red Deer Optimist Rebels in their 2-0 semifinals win over the Saskatoon Contacts at the 2012 Telus Cup in Leduc. Sydora stands just 5'8 tall but seems to grow about a foot taller whenever he stands between the pipes for his club.
"They're awesome to play in," Sydora said following the win. "Nothing can compare to the do-or-die games."

Fit To Be Tied - Telus Cup Top Teams Remain Unbeaten
No fear.
That's the lesson Head Coach Doug Quinn says his team learned on Thursday. Play with no fear.
The Red Deer Optimist Rebels took on Phenix College du Esther-Blondin in a battle of unbeaten teams, and a possible gold medal game preview, and came away with a 2-2 tie.
Red Deer held a 2-0 lead going into the final period until Esther-Blondin scored twice in the span of 4:24 to even the match. And while the point lost in the standings wasn't critical for the baby rebels, the lesson learned in the process certainly was.
