ANAHEIM -- Nick Ritchie and Corey Perry each scored in the third period to help the Anaheim Ducks defeat the Vancouver Canucks 4-2 in their home opener at Honda Center on Sunday.
It was the first loss in regulation for the Canucks (4-1-1).
"We had the mentality of going to work tonight, and it showed in all three periods," Ducks coach Randy Carlyle said. "We wanted to make sure we applied as much pressure as we possibly could in all areas of the ice."
