Troy Terry hat trick leads streaking Ducks past Coyotes
Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports

Troy Terry scored a hat trick, including the game-winner with 1:33 to go in overtime, and also had an assist as the Anaheim Ducks won their fifth consecutive game, 4-3 over the visiting Arizona Coyotes on Wednesday night.

Terry took a crossing pass in the right circle from Mason McTavish at the end of a two-on-one rush and roofed a wrist shot to complete his second career hat trick and first four-point game.

Leo Carlsson also scored for Anaheim, which improved to 3-0 in overtime. Lukas Dostal, named the NHL Rookie of the Month for October earlier in the day, made 32 saves to improve to 5-1-0 on the season with his fourth straight win.

Lawson Crouse scored a pair of goals, Logan Cooley scored the first goal of his NHL career and J.J. Moser added a pair of assists for Arizona. Karel Vejmelka finished with 25 saves.

Anaheim jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first 10 minutes of the game on a pair of power-play goals by Terry. The first came at the 3:46 mark after Terry stopped the puck along the boards and then skated in and fired a wrist shot from the right faceoff dot into the short-side top corner. The second came on a backhand rebound in the slot off a Pavel Mintyukov shot with 10:25 left in the period.

Arizona cut the lead to 2-1 at the 11:41 mark on Crouse's one-timer from the low slot. The Coyotes tied it a little more than three minutes later when Cooley took a Moser pass at the blue line and broke in alone and then flipped a wrist shot over Dostal's blocker.

Arizona took a 3-2 lead 14:25 into the second period on a power-play goal by Crouse, who knocked in a rebound following a Matias Maccelli shot in the slot.

Anaheim tied it 3-3 at the 4:01 mark of the third period when Carlsson redirected Terry's shot from the left circle past Vejmelka's glove side for his third goal of the season.
