The Stanley Cup winners were 2-0 up, but a late rally from Anaheim turned the match on its head and handed the Vegas team first loss in 12 games.

Two late goals from Sam Carrick and a go-ahead goal with 3:40 sunk Vegas down.

“Going down 2-0 to the Stanley Cup champions, best team in the league, in my opinion … and to show resiliency and to come back, and we’ve done it a bunch of times against a bunch of teams, it’s pretty impressive to see that kind of resiliency in this group, especially such a young group,” forward Alex Killorn said.

Anaheim trailed 2-0 entering the third, but Henrique got the Ducks on the board with a power-play goal from the slot.
The Ducks tied it when Jack Eichel coughed up the puck to Ducks rookie Pavel Mintyukov, who fed Carrick against the run of play for his second goal of the season.
