The Vegas Golden Knights made history in dramatic fashion Tuesday.
The Knights picked up their 33rd win, tying the 1993-94 Florida Panthers and 1993-94 Anaheim Mighty Ducks for the most wins in a season by an expansion team.

Late in Tuesday's game, it didn't appear the Knights were going to be tying any records. They trailed the Calgary Flames 2-1 with less than two minutes left, but Erik Haula and Jonathan Marchessault scored the equalizer and go-ahead goals 10 seconds apart. David Perron added an empty-netter.
Vegas' first chance at breaking the record will come Thursday against the Winnipeg Jets.
