(AP) — Leo Carlsson had a goal and two assists, helping the Anaheim Ducks rally for a 5-4 shootout win over the Los Angeles Kings on Friday.
Chris Kreider, Olen Zellweger and Pavel Mintyukov also scored for the Ducks, and Mason McTavish had two assists. Ville Husso made 23 saves in his first start of the season.

Alex Laferriere and Kevin Fiala also scored, and Darcy Kuemper made 27 saves.
Mintyukov cut it to 4-3 with 9:18 remaining when he awkwardly pulled the puck out of his skates and got enough on a wrist shot. Carlsson tied it with 1:32 to go on a one-timer from Jackson LaCombe with Husso pulled for an extra attacker.
Carlsson and McTavish made their attempts in the shootout, and Husso saved tries by Fiala and Adrian Kempe.
Edmundson put Los Angeles up 4-2 at 6:53 of the third period, benefitting from a screen and quick flash of a stick as the puck arrived on net by Corey Perry, who played his first 14 seasons for the Ducks and became public enemy No. 1 to many Kings fans for his play in the contentious series.
