Troy Terry scored the go-ahead goal midway through the third period on a milestone assist by Ryan Getzlaf as the Anaheim Ducks defeated the Montreal Canadiens, 4-2, on Sunday afternoon in Anaheim, Calif.
Getzlaf picked up the primary assist on Terry’s goal for his 989th career point with the Ducks, breaking the franchise record set by Hall of Famer Teemu Selanne.
With the score tied 2-2, Terry took Getzlaf’s no-look backhand touch pass in the neutral zone and then broke in and beat Sam Montembeault with a backhand shot for his fifth goal in six games. The Ducks then mobbed Getzlaf in the right corner while the Honda Center crowd responded with a standing ovation.
Adam Henrique had a goal and an assist and Vinni Lettieri also scored a goal for Anaheim, which snapped a six-game winless streak. Mike Hoffman and Jake Evans scored goals for Montreal. Montembeault finished with 22 saves.
Blue Jackets 4, Devils 3 (SO)
Jakub Voracek scored the only goal of the shootout as visiting Columbus overcame a pair of one-goal deficits to edge New Jersey in Newark, N.J.
Columbus goalie Joonas Korpisalo stopped all three Devils’ attempts in the shootout before Voracek, who had two primary assists in regulation, went to his backhand to beat Scott Wedgewood.
Oliver Bjorkstrand and Patrik Laine scored in the first period and Boone Jenner collected the game-tying goal late in the third for the Blue Jackets, who have alternated wins with losses in their last seven games. Andreas Johnsson scored in the first and Dawson Mercer and Dougie Hamilton scored 77 seconds apart in the second for the Devils, who collected three points on a weekend back-to-back.
