and Clayton Keller all tallied for Utah. McBain added an assist while Nick Schmaltz contributed two. Connor Ingram had 29 saves.

Carlsson dominated his shift in overtime, settling the puck and nearly setting up the winner, then recovering it on the forecheck to glide into the slot for a silky forehand-to-backhand-to-forehand goal, unassisted, less than a minute into the extra session.

With 5:05 showing on the regulation clock, the Ducks made it a new game when Mintyukov’s second goal of the night entered the net after his sharp-angle, close-range bid handcuffed Ingram. It struck him at least twice before slipping behind him.

Utah earned its second advantage of the night with 9:10 to play in the game when Schmaltz set up Utah’s captain, Keller, for a backhand goal. Earlier in the period, Schmaltz delivered a high hit to Isac Lundeström that sent him back to the dressing room for attention.

Five and a half minutes earlier, an issue from early in last season reared its head again when after a stretched-out Ducks power play, a sloppy line change led to a three-on-two rush that culminated in Schmaltz feeding Kesselring for tying goal from the high slot.

The Ducks had reclaimed the lead in similar fashion, by scoring both of the second period’s goals.

Fabbi and McTavish, who factored into both goals, went to work with Fabbri initiating a battle that McTavish won, working along the wall and switching positions with Mintyukov. McTavish dished to Brian Dumoulin, who found Mintyukov at the left faceoff dot from a searing shot with 3:08 left in the period.

After McTavish’s initial foray to the goal crease was disrupted by contact from defenseman Ian Cole, McTavish and Trevor Zegras played catch below the goal line before Zegras slipped a pass between Cole’s legs and past winger Lawson Crouse that found Fabbri in front. He went from forehand to backhand and lifted the puck over Ingram to knot the score at two.

Wednesday’s opening salvo was played at a break-neck pace, and while the Ducks narrowly out-shot Utah, they trailed 2-1 after a pair of unanswered goals by the visitors.

Utah struck at even strength at the 8:54 mark when McBain tipped trade acquisition Mikhail Sergachev’s shot by Dostál and again at 13:25 when Hayton’s power-play putback wrapped up a sequence during which Nick Schmaltz took the puck to the net aggressively.

After buzzing off the opening faceoff, the Ducks opened the scoring 4:40 into the contest with a rush goal. Frank Vatrano found a trailing Ryan Strome, who danced directly between the hash marks, eschewing a prime shooting opportunity for a lateral pass to Terry, who whizzed a one-timer past Ingram for his second goal in the past two games.
