Sonny Milano, Adam Henrique and Sam Steel added goals for the
Ducks, while Zegras also had an assist, as Anaheim has built its
longest winning streak in a season since the team won 11
straight in the 2015-16 campaign.
Anaheim captain Ryan Getzlaf had two assists to give him 999
career points, while Jakob Silfverberg added an assist in his
return from a 10-day quarantine while in NHL COVID-19 protocol.
Nils Hoglander had a goal for the Canucks, who have lost twice
to the Ducks during their current four-game losing streak. Four
of Hoglander's five goals on the season have come in the past
three games.
The Canucks went on top at 7:29 of the opening period on
Hoglander's goal before Zegras tied it at 12:35 on the power
play. Zegras' one-timer came from the top of the right circle.
Zegras delivered again at 2:13 of the second period, also on the
power play for his fourth goal of the season. His tally from
just outside the goal crease came after Getzlaf fired the puck
in toward goal. Terry also had an assist on the goal to give him
a point in all but the opening game of the season.
Milano made it 3-1 Ducks at 8:55 of the second period when he
delivered after a spinning backhand cross-ice pass from Zegras
for his third goal of the season. Henrique and Steel each added
a goal in the final minute, with Ryan Getzlaf getting an assist
on Henrique's score.
The offensive-minded Ducks have at least three goals in 11
consecutive games, going 7-1-3 in that stretch.
The Canucks finished a three-game trip without a victory and
will return home Wednesday to face the Colorado Avalanche, who
beat them 7-1 on Thursday.
