Lukas Dostal made 19 saves.<\/p>\n<p>Artemi Panarin logged a goal and an assist and Matthew Robertson and Vladislav Gavrikov also scored for the Rangers, who lost for the sixth time in their past seven games (1-5-1) and fell to 2-7-2 since Dec. 27. Spencer Martin stopped 21 shots for New York.<\/p>\n<p>The Rangers had the upper hand early when Robertson scored four minutes into the game on a blast from the slot and through the legs of Dostal. The Ducks got even at 11:31 of the first period on the second goal in two games from McTavish.<\/p>\n<p>New York regained its lead at 4:03 of the second period when Panarin extended his points streak to 10 games with a power-play goal from just inside the right circle.<\/p>\n<p>The Ducks pulled even at 2-2 at 8:29 of the middle period when Viel scored his first of the season in his second game for Anaheim. Viel was acquired in a trade with the Boston Bruins on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Killorn put the Ducks in front for the first time 3-2 at 18:02 of the second period on a power-play goal while appearing in his 999th career game.<\/p>\n<p>Gauthier gave the Ducks a 4-2 lead 1:01 into the third period. Gavrikov got the goal back on the power play for the Rangers to pull within a score at 7:11 of the third period off assists from Panarin, who has a team-best 56 points, and Vincent Trocheck. Gauthier delivered his Ducks-leading 22nd of the season into an empty net.<\/p>\n<p>New York was unable to score on a two-man advantage for 21 seconds with just over four minutes remaining and a power play that expired with just over two minutes left.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;Field Level Media<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"Body\" dir=\"ltr\" class=\"text-module__text__0GDob text-module__dark-grey__UFC18 text-module__regular__qJJtA text-module__small__sph8i body-module__base__o--Cl body-module__small_body__gOmDf article-body-module__element__5eCce article-body-module__trust-badge__5mS3f\">Our Standards: <a data-testid=\"Link\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thomsonreuters.com\/en\/about-us\/trust-principles.html\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"text-module__text__0GDob text-module__dark-grey__UFC18 text-module__medium__2Rl30 text-module__small__sph8i link-module__link__INqxZ link-module__underline_default__-okuC link-module__with-icon__qlg76\">The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles., opens new tab<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reutersagency.com\/en\/licensereuterscontent\/?utm_medium=rcom-article-media&amp;utm_campaign=rcom-rcp-lead\" target=\"_blank\" dir=\"ltr\" class=\"button-module__link__A3sD0 button-module__secondary__70gBu button-module__round__QDFgq button-module__w_auto__Sem-F\" data-testid=\"LicenceContentButton\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Purchase Licensing Rights<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Item 1 of 42 Jan 19, 2026; Anaheim, California, USA; New York Rangers center J.T.
