The Anaheim Ducks made a goaltending change to start the second period of Friday’s Game 3. <\/p>\n
Down 3-0 to the Vegas Golden Knights after the opening 20 minutes of play, the Ducks opted to pull Lukas Dostal<\/a> from the net and replace him with Ville Husso<\/a>. <\/p>\n Dostal allowed the three goals on eight shots, with one scored during even-strength (Shea Theodore), another while the Golden Knights were shorthanded (Brayden McNabb), and the third while they had a man advantage (Mitch Marner).<\/p>\n The first goal he gave up to Theodore was the first shot of the game, 1:06 in.<\/p>\n The 25-year-old Czech exited the contest having posted a .625 save percentage. Entering Friday’s game, Dostal had recorded a 3.22 goals-against average and a .886 save percentage across his eight playoff appearances.<\/p>\n Husso also came in relief of Dostal during the Ducks’ first-round series against the Edmonton Oilers, stopping 10 of 11 shots he faced in Game 5 for a 1.27 goals-against average and .909 save percentage.<\/p>\n The second-round series between Anaheim and Vegas is currently tied 1-1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Anaheim Ducks made a goaltending change to start the second period of Friday’s Game 3.
