Ducks Stage Late Comeback for 5-4 OT Win Over Struggling Rangers
Anaheim climbs to .500 for the first time since 2018 while New York falters in critical playoff race.
- Mason McTavish scored the overtime winner 59 seconds into extra time, capping the Ducks' rally from a two-goal deficit in the final six minutes of regulation.
- Leo Carlsson delivered a career-best four-point performance with a goal and three assists, driving Anaheim's offensive surge.
- The Rangers squandered a 4-2 lead and failed to capitalize on a 5-on-3 power play, continuing their recent struggles with special teams.
- New York has now lost five of its last six games, jeopardizing its playoff hopes as they remain tied in points for the second Eastern Conference wild-card spot but trail in games played.
- Despite the victory and reaching a .500 points percentage for the first time since 2018, the Ducks are unlikely to end their seven-season playoff drought.
