Ducks Clinch Third Consecutive Victory with Alex Killorn's Late Game-Winning Move Over Blackhawks

Tuesday, November 19th, 2024

In the third period, Alex Killorn played a pivotal role for the Anaheim Ducks by scoring a goal and providing an assist, leading to a 3-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. This victory extended Anaheim's winning streak to three games, the longest they've had this season.

Killorn scored the tying goal with a well-executed backhand at 5:10 and later delivered a precise pass that enabled Leo Carlsson to score the decisive goal with 10:22 left in the period.

Contributing to Anaheim's win, Pavel Mintyukov and Trevor Zegras each added a goal and an assist, while John Gibson stopped 18 shots as goalie.

The Chicago Blackhawks experienced their fifth defeat in the last six games. Connor Bedard assisted both goals scored by Jason Dickinson, and Arvid Soderblom made 21 saves in goal.

Aftermath:

Despite having games on consecutive nights, the Ducks showed determination and secured their second straight win on the road.

Although some of the new forward line combinations showed potential, the Blackhawks continued to struggle with scoring, managing just seven goals in regular play over their last six matches.

Crucial Moment:

With roughly 1:40 remaining in the game, Soderblom was swapped for an extra attacker, but Gibson blocked Ryan Donato's attempt with about a minute left.

Important Statistic:

Nineteen-year-old Bedard has accumulated 51 assists in 87 games, making him the fourth teenager in the team's history to achieve 50 career assists.

Upcoming Schedule:

The Ducks will return home to play against the Buffalo Sabres on Friday, while the Blackhawks will host the Florida Panthers on Thursday.
