The Anaheim Ducks emerged victorious in a competitive match against the Vegas Golden Knights, with a final score of 4-1. The Ducks' season record now stands at an impressive tally, while the Golden Knights face a less favorable outcome. The game unfolded at the T-Mobile Arena, where fans witnessed an intense battle on ice.

The Ducks showcased their resilience from the second period onwards, overturning a scoreless first period with a strategic shorthanded goal that set the tone for their performance. Their offense was particularly effective in the third period, where they netted three goals to seal their triumph over Vegas. The team's shooting accuracy was commendable; they scored four goals from just 23 shots, reflecting a shooting percentage of seventeen percent.

Anaheim's defense and goaltending were equally formidable. The goaltender saved all but one of the 33 shots faced throughout the game, boasting an impeccable save percentage of one hundred percent. This defensive prowess was critical in keeping Vegas at bay and securing Anaheim's win.

Conversely, despite having three powerplay chances, Vegas managed to convert only one into a goal.

The Ducks also excelled in shorthanded situations; not only did they fend off all but one attempt by Vegas during these moments but also scored once themselves while being down a player – showcasing tactical efficiency even when under pressure.

Anaheim’s players demonstrated strong teamwork with eleven total points earned through seven assists alongside their four goals. Their aggressive play resulted in eighteen hits and fourteen takeaways which contributed significantly to disrupting Vegas’ rhythm throughout the match.

Despite winning fewer faceoffs than their opponents – seventeen compared to twenty-eight – this did not deter them from controlling much of the game’s pace and ultimately outscoring them where it mattered most.
