Granlund\u2019s power-play goal put the Ducks back ahead 3-2 at 1:01 of the third period. Anaheim only had one shot on goal during a 5-on-3 for 1:35 that started late in the second period, but Granlund scored before the second penalty expired. He converted on a quick shot off his own rebound from the right hash mark after Lankinen got a glove on his initial attempt, only to have it pop out back to Granlund.<\/p>\n
Drew O’Connor<\/a> tied it 3-3 at 2:22, converting a rebound from the right hash mark after\u00a0Dostal made the initial save off an Evander Kane shot on a 3-on-2 rush.<\/p>\n It was O\u2019Connor\u2019s 17th goal of the season, setting a new NHL career high, but he said it was hard to separate his individual success from the team\u2019s struggles.<\/p>\n \u201cWe win and lose as a team,\u201d O\u2019Connor said. \u201cSo, it’s nice when you can score, but overall, I think if we play like that, we’ll give ourselves a chance to win more often than not.\u201d<\/p>\n McTavish restored Anaheim\u2019s lead 3:23 later, and Troy Terry<\/a>\u00a0scored into an empty net with five seconds remaining for the 5-3 final.<\/p>\n \u201cWe’d let one in and we answer right away,\u201d Carlson said. \u201cThose are big moments of the game, and learning moments too, that we focus on going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n NOTES: Carlson (36 years, 73 days) became the oldest defenseman in Ducks history to post a three-assist game, besting Chris Pronger<\/a>\u00a0(34 years, 163 days on March 22, 2009). Carlson is also the oldest Anaheim defenseman to record a multi-assist period, a mark set by Scott Niedermayer<\/a>\u00a0(35 years, 212 days) on March 31, 2009. \u2026 Pettersson became the second-fastest Canucks player to record 500 NHL points, behind Thomas Gradin<\/a>\u00a0(529 games). He also reached 167 power-play points, passing J.T. Miller<\/a>\u00a0(165) for ninth most in team history. \u2026 The Ducks earned their first 40-win season since 2017-18, the last time they made the postseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Granlund\u2019s power-play goal put the Ducks back ahead 3-2 at 1:01 of the third period.
