ANAHEIM, Calif. — \u2014 Troy Terry<\/a> scored on a breakaway 1:29 into overtime for his second goal of the game after Mikael Granlund<\/a> tied it late in regulation and the Anaheim Ducks<\/a> rallied to defeat the Buffalo Sabres<\/a> 6-5 on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Anaheim ended Buffalo’s seven-game road winning streak when Tage Thompson<\/a> couldn’t keep in the puck in the Ducks’ zone and Terry held on a 2-on-0 break to score on a backhander.<\/p>\n

Granlund tied the game at 5 with 1:44 remaining in the third period on a power play with Ville Husso<\/a> pulled for an extra attacker.<\/p>\n

Chris Kreider<\/a> and Jackson LaCombe<\/a> had power-play goals in the first period, Beckett Sennecke<\/a> also scored, Husso made 24 saves and the Ducks have won consecutive games as part of a four-game points streak.<\/p>\n

Alex Lyon<\/a> had his 10-game road winning streak \u2014 tied for the third-longest by a goaltender in NHL history \u2014 snapped after allowing six goals on 33 shots. That included giving up goals to Sennecke and Terry on two of the Ducks\u2019 four shots in the second period.<\/p>\n

Alex Tuch<\/a>, Josh Doan<\/a>, Jack Quinn<\/a>, Owen Power<\/a> and Zach Benson<\/a> scored for the Sabres, who extended their franchise-record road points streak to 14 games. It was their second loss in the last 14 games overall.<\/p>\n

Lyon hadn\u2019t lost a road start since Dec. 8, when Buffalo was last in the Eastern Conference with a 2-9-2 record outside of upstate New York. The Sabres had since won 20 of 24 road games as part of an astonishing turnaround that has them set to end the longest playoff drought in the NHL and on track to claim a first division title since 2009-10.<\/p>\n

A victory for Lyon would have tied San Jose\u2019s Evgeni Nabokov in 2009-10 and Minnesota\u2019s Devan Dubnyk in 2014-15 for the longest undefeated road run in league history.<\/p>\n
