Henrik Sedin scores in overtime as Vancouver Canucks edge Anaheim Ducks 3-2
VANCOUVER — After watching the Anaheim Ducks miss on a couple clear-cut chances in overtime, Henrik Sedin made no mistake at the other end.
The Canucks captain scored at 4:01 of the extra period Friday as Vancouver defeated Anaheim 3-2.
Sedin took a slick saucer pass from Loui Eriksson on a 2-on-1 before burying his ninth of the season off the television camera in the Anaheim net moments after Ryan Getzlaf fired wide and Cam Folwer saw his shot stopped on odd-man rushes for the Ducks.
“This is the 3-on-3,” said Sedin. “They could have won. We’re happy to take the win and move on.”
