"Great comeback," said winger Chris Kreider, whose second-period power-play goal got the Ducks started. "A good job of fighting back. It's definitely a confident feeling." Leo Carlsson, who suffered through two dismal losing seasons during the long post-Perry rebuild in Anaheim, had two assists and the game-tying goal with 91 seconds left in regulation for the Ducks, who trailed 4-2 with less than 10 minutes to play.
"I think it's a good confidence piece for us right now to be able to win these games," Makar said. "Being able to win in all these different ways is good for us. But again, we want to keep building it at this point of the season."
