Game Recap
The Vancouver Canucks overcame a three-goal deficit in the third period to defeat the Anaheim Ducks 6-5 in overtime. Anaheim had built a commanding lead, scoring three times in the second period to take a 4-1 advantage, and even extended it to 5-2 in the final frame before Vancouver's surge. Despite the Ducks' early control, Vancouver ultimately outshot Anaheim 33-23. SportsFBI's model had favored Anaheim pregame with a 77% probability, a prediction that did not materialize. The win improved Vancouver's record to 2-10-1, while Anaheim dropped to 5-6-0.
Anaheim started strong, with A.J. Greer opening the scoring at 15:52 of the first period, assisted by Jackson LaCombe and Sam Colangelo, for a 1-0 lead. The second period saw the Ducks pull away after Vancouver's Liam Ohgren, assisted by Linus Karlsson and Zeev Buium, briefly tied the game at 06:36. Just 30 seconds later, Jeff Malott, with assists from Jackson LaCombe and Noah Warren, restored Anaheim's lead. Beckett Sennecke, assisted by Cutter Gauthier and Leo Carlsson, then scored at 15:44, followed by Leo Carlsson himself at 18:24, assisted by Jeff Malott and Tristan Luneau, to give Anaheim a 4-1 lead entering the third period.
The Canucks began their rally in the third period with Brock Boeser's goal at 11:40, cutting the deficit to 4-2. Anaheim responded quickly as A.J. Greer netted his second of the game at 12:23, assisted by Sam Colangelo and Jackson LaCombe, pushing the lead to 5-2. However, Jamie Oleksiak, assisted by Brock Boeser and Elias Pettersson, quickly brought Vancouver back within two goals at 12:54. Jonathan Lekkerimäki then scored twice late in the period, an unassisted goal at 17:14 and another at 18:03 assisted by Elias Pettersson and Filip Hronek, to dramatically tie the game at 5-5 and force overtime. Vancouver secured the victory in the extra session. Jackson LaCombe led all skaters with three assists for Anaheim, while Lekkerimäki's two goals spearheaded Vancouver's comeback. Lukas Dostal made 28 saves for Anaheim, and Leevi Meriläinen stopped 19 shots for Vancouver.
