DUCKS 6, FLAMES 4

CALGARY, Alberta (AP) — Corey Perry had a goal and an assist, and the Ducks went a perfect 3 for 3 on the power play.

The Flames led 3-2 after an action-packed first period, but with Johnny Gaudreau in the penalty box, Perry banged Cam Fowler's rebound past Jonas Hiller to tie it early in the second.

The Ducks went right back to the man advantage and needed only 11 seconds to convert, with a rebound deflecting off several players and going in off the skate of Sami Vatanen to put Anaheim into the lead for good.

Mike Santorelli, with a pair of goals, Hamphus Lindholm and Rickard Rakell also scored for Anaheim. The Ducks, 9-1-1 in their past 11 games, leapfrogged San Jose into second place in the Pacific Division.

CHICAGO (AP) — Patrick Kane had a goal and three assists, and Chicago stopped a three-game slide with a victory over Toronto.

Andrew Shaw, Brent Seabrook, Artemi Panarin and Teuvo Teravainen each had a power-play goal, helping Chicago salvage the finale of disappointing four-game homestand.

It was the Blackhawks' first game since they lost Marian Hossa to a left leg injury, likely sidelining the veteran forward for a couple of weeks.
