Ryan Getzlaf took a stick to the face in the second period Friday, and the ensuing double-minor penalty helped power the Anaheim Ducks to a 4-3 victory over the visiting Vegas Golden Knights. Adam Henrique scored on an immediate two-man advantage, Cam Fowler added another power-play goal, and Max Comtois soon found the net as the Ducks scored three times in a span of 97 seconds. With the Ducks already on the power play later in the second period, they were handed a five-on-three advantage when Tomas Nosek lifted his stick into Getzlaf’s face, drawing blood. Getzlaf returned later in the second period. Shore’s third-period goal increased the Ducks’ lead to 4-1 and was his second of the season.
