Darren Raddysh<\/a> scored midway through overtime, and the Tampa Bay Lightning blew three one-goal leads before beating the Ducks 4-3<\/a> on Wednesday for their fifth consecutive victory.<\/p>\n

Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper celebrated his 1,000th regular-season game in charge with his 595th victory as the longest-tenured bench boss in the NHL. The Lightning\u2019s coach since March 2013 has also led them in 155 playoff games, won two championships and reached four Stanley Cup Finals.<\/p>\n

Nikita Kucherov had a goal and an assist as the Lightning skated off with a win in the opener of their three-game California trip when Raddysh converted a pass from Brandon Hagel, who had three assists.<\/p>\n

J.J. Moser and Brayden Point also scored for Tampa Bay, and Andrei Vasilevskiy made 24 saves.<\/p>\n

Mason McTavish tied it on a power play with 6:58 left in regulation for the Ducks<\/a>, who have lost four straight and eight of 10. Jansen Harkins and Beckett Sennecke also scored, and Lukas Dostal stopped 24 shots as the Ducks earned a point for only the second time in six games.<\/p>\n

Moser opened the scoring in the first period with his first goal since agreeing to an eight-year, $54-million contract extension last weekend.<\/p>\n

The Ducks scored their first two goals off turnovers, with the 19-year-old Sennecke getting the 12th of his rookie season early in the third period.<\/p>\n

Kucherov scored his 18th goal on a cross-ice pass from Hagel during a power play four minutes later, but the Ducks evened it again when Pavel Mintyukov made an exceptional play at the blue line to set up McTavish for his 10th goal.<\/p>\n

The Ducks announced during the game that forward Frank Vatrano will be out for about six weeks with a broken shoulder incurred in a loss to the Kings last Saturday.<\/p>\n

Up next for the Ducks: vs. Minnesota at Honda Center on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Darren Raddysh scored midway through overtime, and the Tampa Bay Lightning blew three one-goal leads before beating the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":101818,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[28358,24675,16557,16556,53265,49120,190,53264,16976,35745,35260,53263,35159,135,862,137,136,53266],"class_list":["post-101817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-anaheim","tag-assist","tag-brandon-hagel","tag-brayden-point","tag-darren-raddysh","tag-ducks","tag-goal","tag-j-j-moser","tag-nikita-kucherov","tag-overtime","tag-pass","tag-playoff-game","tag-power-play","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-bay-lightning","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news","tag-three-game-california-road-trip"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101817","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101817"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101817\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/101818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101817"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101817"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101817"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
