Gauthier, who became the first player in Ducks history with back-to-back hat tricks, has eight goals the past three games after going nine games without scoring.<\/p>\n
Beckett Sennecke<\/a> had a career-high four assists, and Mikael Granlund<\/a> had a goal and two assists for the Ducks (7-7-1), who have points in four of five games (3-1-1). Laurent Brossoit<\/a>\u00a0made 19 saves in his second straight start since being called up from San Diego of the American Hockey League on Saturday.<\/p>\n Jake DeBrusk<\/a> scored twice in the third period for the Canucks (3-13-1), whose only win in 14 games (1-12-1) came in overtime after a four-goal third period comeback against the Ducks on Oct. 27. Kevin Lankinen<\/a>\u00a0made 17 saves.<\/p>\n Anaheim scored seven power-play goals on nine chances their previous two games and wasted little time extending that streak. The Ducks power play went 3-for-3 in Vancouver and has 10 goals on 12 chances in their past three games.<\/p>\n Granlund scored on the first power-play shot at 4:04 of the first period, one-timing a Sennecke pass between Lankinen\u2019s pads from the low left hash mark to make it 1-0.\u00a0<\/p>\n Vancouver tied it 1-1 on a power play at 6:04 after Marco Rossi<\/a> corralled a bouncing puck in the left slot and passed cross ice to Liam Ohgren<\/a>, who had an open net after Vancouver forward Paul Cotter<\/a> was knocked into Brossoit on the other side.<\/p>\n Gauthier’s one-timer from the left face-off dot off a Sennecke pass from the goal line went far side past the glove of Lankinen to make it 2-1 at 17:07 for another power-play goal.<\/p>\n Leo Carlsson<\/a> made it 3-1 at 2:58 of the second period, keeping the puck on a 2-on-1 short-handed rush and putting a wrist shot over Lankinen\u2019s glove.\u00a0<\/p>\n Linus Karlsson<\/a> pulled the Canucks to 3-2 at 8:17. After Drew O’Connor<\/a> won a race to a loose puck in the corner and chipped it to Karlsson all alone in front, he cut across the crease on his forehand around Brossoit before lifting a wrist shot past the goalie\u2019s fully extended glove.<\/p>\n Gauthier made it 4-2 with his second power-play goal at 18:25, one-timing another Sennecke pass over Lankinen\u2019s glove. Six of Gauthier’s eight goals have come on the Anaheim power play, and he holds the NHL lead with eight power-play goals this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n Gauthier finished a rush pass from Sennecke with an against-the-grain, catch-and-release wrist shot from the slot that caught Lankinen moving right and went past his glove-side shoulder to make it 5-2 at 4:11 of the third period.<\/p>\n DeBrusk pulled the Canucks to 5-3 at 5:30 with a power-play goal on the backhand in tight between Brossoit\u2019s pads after a turnover in the zone created a 2-on-1. He scored again at 9:34 to make it 5-4 when Jamie Oleksiak<\/a>\u2019s point shot bounced off him in front of the net and fluttered over a screened Brossoit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gauthier, who became the first player in Ducks history with back-to-back hat tricks, has eight goals the past…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":517963,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164],"class_list":["post-517962","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\/517962","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=517962"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517962\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/517963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=517962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=517962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=517962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
