The defending champion Golden Knights saw their
12-game point streak to start the season come to an end while
losing in regulation for the first time.
Sam Carrick scored a pair of goals for the Ducks, including the
game-tying score just past the midway point of the third period.
He later added an insurance goal into an empty net with just
over a minute remaining.
Adam Henrique also had a marker for Anaheim and John Gibson had
30 saves after missing a game with an upper-body injury.
McTavish took a feed from Frank Vatrano from behind the Golden
Knights' goal and scored past sprawling Vegas goalie Logan
Thompson at 16:20 of the third period for his sixth goal of the
season. Vatrano had two assists on Sunday.
Ivan Barbashev and Jack Eichel each scored goals for the Golden
Knights, who earned a 4-1 victory over the Ducks last month.
Eichel added an assist, while Thompson had 19 saves, getting
blitzed in the final period when the Ducks scored four times on
six shots.
Vegas' William Karlsson saw his point streak end at nine games
in the loss against his former team.
Barbashev gave Vegas a 1-0 lead at 8:51 of the opening period
when he redirected a sharp pass from Eichel for his fourth
marker of the season.
Eichel delivered his third goal in two nights when he flipped a
wrist shot into the roof of the goal at 13:43 of the second
period. It was Eichel's sixth goal this season.
Gibson stopped an Eichel short-handed breakaway early in the
third period and the Ducks converted on the man advantage, with
Henrique scoring on a spinning shot from the slot at 1:38.
Carrick tied it 2-2 at 10:55 of the third period after the
Golden Knights turned over the puck in the Ducks' zone.
