The Ducks (6-7-1) hit the road for a three-game tour of Canada that begins with the Canucks (3-12-1).<\/p>\n
Puck drop is set for 6 p.m. PT and will be broadcast Prime Video.<\/p>\n
After going down 3-0 in the first period on Sunday, Anaheim rallied to score six unanswered goals for a 6-3 win over Ottawa.<\/p>\n
Cutter Gauthier accounted for three of the team\u2019s goals, good for the second hat trick of his career, while Leo Carlsson recorded his second-straight three-assist game.<\/p>\n
Four of the team\u2019s six goals came on the power play, something head coach Joel Quenneville lauded from an execution standpoint.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur power play was lethal,\u201d Quenneville said. \u201cThere were a lot of good things about it. We had some fortunate goals. At the same time, the puck movement on our power play put us in the right spot.\u201d<\/p>\n
As for tonight\u2019s matchup, the Ducks and Canucks last met one week ago with Vancouver rallying from a 5-2 deficit for a 6-5 win in overtime.<\/p>\n
When asked about the game, Quenneville didn\u2019t mince words.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s still haunting me,\u201d he said. \u201cI know it was a tough loss in a lot of ways. Last year they had our number and we wanted to get off that side. We were in a perfect spot and we’ve got to find a way to close that one out. Certain teams play well against you. I think we’ve got to overcome our last spot in that last game and play a solid 60 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yesterday, the team placed A.J. Greer on Injured Reserve yesterday with an upper-body injury, and in a corresponding move, recalled left wing Nico Myatovic from the San Diego Gulls.<\/p>\n
Through the 11 games he played at the time of his recall, the 2023 second-round pick co-led the Gulls in goals (5) and tied for third in points (8).<\/p>\n
Myatovic, a BC native, will make his debut in his home province and said it\u2019s a pretty perfect spot to be welcomed to the NHL as he becomes the fifth Duck to make his pro debut this season.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s crazy it worked out that way that it happened in Vancouver,\u201d Myatovic said. \u201cLike my mom always joked that it would just be picture perfect if I ended up in Vancouver. And here we are. So yeah, I got tons of family, tons of friends coming down for the game. So it’ll be exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n
This is the second of four meetings between the teams this season, they\u2019ll next meet on Dec. 16 in Anaheim.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Ducks (6-7-1) hit the road for a three-game tour of Canada that begins with the Canucks (3-12-1).…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":517687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164],"class_list":["post-517686","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\/517686","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=517686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/517687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=517686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=517686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=517686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
