Radek Faksa also scored a goal, while Jake Oettinger made 26
saves as the Stars continued a playoff push with their fifth
victory in the past seven games. Dallas moved one point ahead of
the idle Vegas Golden Knights for the last playoff position in
the West.
It was the first meeting between the Ducks and Stars since Jan.
9, 2020.
Derek Grant had a goal and an assist and Troy Terry also scored
for the Ducks, who saw their losing streak reach 10 games
(0-8-2). John Gibson made 29 saves for Anaheim, which last won a
game on March 6.
Rookie Trevor Zegras had two assists for the Ducks, who will get
a chance at revenge Thursday when the teams meet again at
Anaheim. Tuesday was the first of three meetings between the
teams over the final month of the regular season.
Peterson scored the go-ahead goal with 7:24 remaining as the
Stars erased a one-goal deficit in less than four minutes. Hintz
scored earlier in the third period. Peterson's 12th of the
season came on a two-on-one break with John Klingberg, who
recorded his 34th assist.
Faksa gave the Stars a 1-0 lead 14:05 into the game when he put
a move on Gibson and scored just inside the left post for his
fourth of the season.
The Ducks got even just under four minutes into the second
period. From one knee, Grant fired a pass across the crease,
with the puck rebounding off the right skate of Stars defenseman
Esa Lindell and then bouncing off Oettinger's left skate before
going into the goal.
Terry gave the Ducks a 2-1 lead midway through the second period
with his team-leading 31st of the season. Terry carried the puck
across the blue line before firing a shot from the high slot.
Hintz tied the score at 8:28 of the third period, taking a pass
by Jason Robertson from behind the goal and lifting the puck
over Gibson's left pad for his 29th of the season.
