Chris Kreider<\/a>, Beckett Sennecke<\/a> and Jacob Trouba<\/a> scored for the Ducks (22-21-3), who went 0-8-1 during their skid and won for the first time since Dec. 20, a 4-3 victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Anaheim had allowed at least five goals in each of its previous five games and seven of its past eight.<\/p>\n

Leo Carlsson<\/a> missed the game with a lower-body injury, Cutter Gauthier<\/a> sat out with an illness, and Troy Terry<\/a> missed his third straight game with an upper-body injury. All three participated in the morning skate on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Roope Hintz<\/a> scored, and Casey DeSmith<\/a> made 22 saves for the Stars (27-11-9), who were coming off a 3-1 win at the Los Angeles Kings on Monday to give them points in three straight (2-0-1).<\/p>\n

Dallas played without one of its top defensemen, Miro Heiskanen<\/a>, who missed his first game of the season because of a personal matter.<\/p>\n

The Stars took their timeout at 2:27 of the second period before starting a 17-second 5-on-3, but four seconds into the two-man advantage Jason Robertson<\/a> was called for hooking.<\/p>\n

Both teams were skating 4-on-4 when the Stars were called for another penalty while the Ducks had possession of the puck. Dostal left the ice for an extra skater and Kreider gave the Ducks a 1-0 lead at 3:36 after coming on, receiving a pass from Mikael Granlund<\/a> and scoring with a snap shot from above the right hash marks.<\/p>\n

Sennecke extended it to 2-0 at 12:03 of the third period when he retrieved a loose puck behind the Dallas net, pulled it out front and scored with a backhand while falling down to the ice.<\/p>\n

Hintz cut it to 2-1 at 17:48 with DeSmith pulled for the extra skater, scoring on a one-timer from the inside edge of the right circle.<\/p>\n

Trouba then scored into an empty net with 21 seconds left for the 3-1 final.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Chris Kreider, Beckett Sennecke and Jacob Trouba scored for the Ducks (22-21-3), who went 0-8-1 during their skid…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":132851,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164],"class_list":["post-132850","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anaheim","tag-anaheim","tag-anaheim-headlines","tag-anaheim-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132850","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132850"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132850\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/132851"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132850"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132850"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132850"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
