Ducks 4, Flyers 2
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Centers Corey Perry and Shawn Horcoff scored seven minutes apart during the third period to give the Anaheim Ducks a 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Sunday night in front of a standing-room-only crowd of 17,322 at the Honda Center.
Goalie John Gibson stopped 24 shots for the Ducks (13-15-6), who broke a two-game losing streak while giving the Flyers (15-13-7) just their third defeat in regulation this month.
Center Ryan Getzlaf broke a personal 15-game scoreless streak in giving Anaheim a 1-0 lead at 6:28 of the first period. With one second left in a 5-on-3 power play, Getzlaf one-timed a slap shot from the right point for just his second goal of the season.
The Flyers then tied the score on left winger Jakub Voracek's fourth goal of the season at 12:12. Gibson stopped defenseman Nick Schultz's slap shot from the left circle but Voracek secured the rebound and deposited the puck inside the right post for his third goal in five games.
The teams exchanged power-play goals in the second period. Left winger Michael Raffl gave Philadelphia a 2-1 lead at 2:26 when he converted a backhand shot under the crossbar for his fifth goal. Perry responded by poking Getzlaf's short pass underneath diving Flyers goalie Steve Mason at 4:14. Getzlaf earned his 700th career point on the play.
Perry used his team-leading 13th goal to break a 2-2 tie 58 seconds into the final period. After receiving a pass from defenseman Sami Vatanen, Perry eluded a hip check from defenseman Evgeny Medvedev along the right boards, skated to the top of the right circle and fired a wrist shot past defenseman Luke Schenn and between Mason's legs.
Nearly seven minutes later, Horcoff scored a short-handed goal. Ducks defenseman Clayton Stoner dove to deflect a pass in Anaheim's zone to right winger Andrew Cogliano for a 2-on-none breakaway. Cogliano passed to Horcoff, who converted between Mason's legs for his fifth goal at 7:54.
Anaheim defenseman Cam Fowler left the game in the first period with a lower-body injury.
Mason finished with 33 saves.
