The Anaheim Ducks triumphed over the Carolina Hurricanes with a 3-2 overtime victory, highlighted by Cutter Gauthier's two-goal performance, including the game-winner just under two minutes into overtime. This win marked a much-needed turnaround for the Ducks after a three-game skid. Jansen Harkins also contributed to the score sheet, while Lukas Dostal showcased his skills in goal, stopping 35 shots.

Despite the loss, the Hurricanes displayed offensive pressure, particularly with Andrei Svechnikov's power-play goal and Seth Jarvis’s last-minute equalizer. Carolina's Pyotr Kochetkov managed 17 saves in a game where they heavily outshot the Ducks yet failed to capitalize on their chances.
