In a thrilling comeback, the Anaheim Ducks defeated the Montreal Canadiens 3-2 in a hard-fought game at home. After trailing by two goals, the Ducks rallied back with Mason McTavish and Frank Vatrano scoring in quick succession during the second period to level the score. Alex Killorn then netted the decisive goal late in the third period, securing the Ducks' fourth victory in five games.

The Canadiens initially took the lead with Joel Armia's short-handed goal and Christian Dvorak's power-play tally in the first period. However, despite a strong start, Montreal faltered as Anaheim's Lukas Dostal made 21 saves to preserve the win. This defeat marks Montreal’s fifth straight loss as they continue their California road trip.
