Andrei Kuzmenko added a goal and Elias Pettersson had two assists to help Vancouver win its third straight match.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought we had a lot of possession time, I like most of the game,\u201d Canucks coach Rick Tocchet said. \u201cI think the guys worked hard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">Thatcher Demko stopped 20 shots to improve to 3-1 since returning from an injury on 27 February.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">Troy Terry and Brock McGinn scored for Anaheim.

But I thought we played a really good four-line game. Our goaltending was good and we put ourselves in a spot to at least get a point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">The Canucks were the more active team in the final period, despite failing to convert any of the first six shots on goal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">Despite outperforming the Ducks 12-7 in the third, the Canucks ended up in extra time for the second straight game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">But 20 seconds into overtime up stepped Miller, as he went top shelf with a wrist shot to help Vancouver improve to 3-1 on its six-game homestand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Component-root-0-2-446 p Component-p-0-2-437\">\u201cI think we played the right way for the majority of the game,\u201d Miller said. \u201cI think if we can hang our hat on doing that on most nights, we\u2019re going to come out with success no matter who we\u2019re playing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Canucks host Ottawa on Saturday night.
