Trevor Zegras scored a power-play goal with 21.6 seconds remaining to give the Anaheim Ducks a 4-3 win over the Boston Bruins on Tuesday night.
Rickard Rakell, Isac Lundestrom and Adam Henrique scored in the first period, and John Gibson made 31 saves for the Ducks, who had lost their last two games and five of the past seven in regulation.
"I think our power play was going pretty good tonight," said Zegras, who also had an assist. "First one, we scored. Second one, we were in their zone it seemed like five minutes. And third one, obviously, we scored late."
Nick Foligno and Brandon Carlo each had a goal and an assist for the Bruins, who had their five-game winning streak halted. David Pastrnak also scored, and Linus Ullmark allowed four goals on 28 shots.
"Disappointing finish, obviously, but we did at least get our game," coach Bruce Cassidy said. "But the positive of this is we found a way to get back in the game. Some of these games have gone 6, 7-1 against us this year."

Zegras won it on a wrist shot from the left circle after Charlie McAvoy had been called for hooking. Zegras praised Sonny Milano for setting a crucial screen on his 14th goal of the season, the fourth on the power play.
"He has been unbelievable net front this year in terms of winning puck battles, tipping pucks. I mean, that’s the only reason why I scored was his screen,"
