Ducks score 5 in 6th straight, hold off Oilers for 3rd straight win
Cutter Gauthier scored his ninth goal in four games, as Beckett Sennecke and Pavel Mintyukov netted two-goal nights in 5-4 win in Edmonton.
Edmonton, Alberta – The Anaheim Ducks have shown their scoring prowess once again, as they defeated the Edmonton Oilers 5-4 on Thursday at Rogers Place. Led by Connor McDavid, the Oilers attempted to rally back, but the Ducks held firm, marking their third consecutive win. Beckett Sennecke contributed with two goals, including a power play goal towards the end of the third period.
Pavel Mintyukov scored his first two goals of the season, tying the game up 3-3 after an Oilers rebound. Another power play goal from Cutter Gauthier early in the third period set the Ducks up for a five-goal run, ultimately securing the victory. The Ducks have scored a remarkable 34 goals in their last six games, with 12 power play goals in the last four games.
This marks the second time since the 1993-94 season that a team has achieved five goals in six consecutive games, joining the 2021-22 Toronto Maple Leafs.
