BOSTON \u2014 The Ducks did what winning teams do \u2013 take care of business against a struggling team.<\/p>\n
Troy Terry snapped a tie in the third period, Mikael Granlund had two goals as part of his five-point night and the Ducks held off the Boston Bruins for a 7-5 victory on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
Granlund had two goals and three assists to tie the Ducks\u2019 franchise record for points in a game. He\u2019s the seventh Ducks player to record a five-point game (19 instances) and the first to do so since Ryan Getzlaf had five assists in a Nov. 24, 2015 game against Calgary.<\/p>\n
Terry and Jacob Trouba each had a goal and an assist, and Nikita Nesterenko had four assists, two more than he had totaled in his prior 35 NHL games.<\/p>\n
Boston dropped its sixth straight game after opening Marco Sturm\u2019s coaching tenure with three wins in a row.<\/p>\n
Morgan Geekie scored twice for the Bruins, and David Pastrnak had a goal and an assist. Charlie McAvoy had two assists.<\/p>\n
The Ducks scored four goals in a back-and-forth third period. Granlund had a power-play tally for a 4-3 lead 2:52 into the period, slamming home a shot from the right circle. Colangelo, who hails from nearby Stoneham, Massachusetts, then settled a bouncing puck and scored from the slot at 7:49, his first goal of the season giving them a 5-3 lead.<\/p>\n
Pastrnak made it a one-goal game with 5:28 left, scoring on a long wrister from the right point just eight seconds into a crucial man advantage.<\/p>\n
Just 25 seconds later, Geekie tied the score at 5-5 when he scored a one-timer off a backhand feed from Nikita Zadorov, who rushed end-to-end.<\/p>\n
Terry put the Ducks in front again at 15:27 with his second goal of the season.<\/p>\n
Granlund tacked on an empty-netter with 2:08 remaining. The forward also had a power-play goal that snapped a 3-3 tie early in the third.<\/p>\n
Drew Helleson and Cutter Gauthier also scored for the Ducks in the third game of a five-game road trip. Petr Mrazek made 36 saves.<\/p>\n
Casey Mittelstadt and Mason Lohrei scored for Boston. Henri Jokiharju reached 100 career points with an assist on Lohrei\u2019s first goal of the season.<\/p>\n
A fight broke out with 7:46 left in the second between the Ducks\u2019 Ross Johnston and Boston\u2019s Tanner Jeannot. The two exchanged right hands and upper cuts for a few minutes before the lineman jumped in. Jeannot waved to the crowd as he and Johnston headed to the penalty box to serve penalties for fighting.<\/p>\n
The Ducks played the final two periods with five defensemen after Radko Gudas suffered a lower-body injury.<\/p>\n
