(AP Photo/Kyusung Gong) Expand ANAHEIM — Ducks rookie Beckett Sennecke led yet another multi-goal comeback, creating Chris Kreider’s game-winner with 13 seconds left in overtime after assisting on consecutive tallies that closed a two-goal gap en route to a 5-4 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Friday night at Honda Center. Sennecke led a two-on-one rush, dangling and dragging his way to the net to create a tap-in for Kreider. That sent the fans home with free chicken and smiles on their faces after the Ducks’ ninth such rally this season. That’s four more than any NHL team in 2025-26. The Ducks are just the sixth team in NHL history to record nine such wagon-circling efforts in 58 games or fewer, per team PR guru Alex Gilchrist. “We just have that belief in ourselves that we’re never out of it, that’s the biggest thing in these comeback wins is that we never think we’re out of it, and we know we can score goals,” said Sennecke, after the Ducks’ 11th victory in the past 13 games. Jacob Trouba had a goal against the team that drafted and developed him. Leo Carlsson cashed in on the power play, with Sennecke assisting on not only Kreider’s winner but also Carlsson’s marker and another by Pavel Mintyukov, who added an assist on Ryan Poehling’s tally. Lukáš Dostál made 29 saves. The Ducks were without Frank Vatrano (broken shoulder), Mikael Granlund (upper-body injury), Ryan Strome (illness) and Troy Terry (upper-body injury). Former Kings Alex Iafallo and Gabriel Vilardi each scored for Winnipeg. Iafallo also assisted on Elias Salomonsson’s first career goal. Cole Perfetti and Logan Stanley both had two assists, including one apiece on Kyle Connor’s goal. Connor tacked on an assist. Connor Hellebuyck, who won an Olympic gold medal with Team USA alongside Connor after winning the Hart and Vezina trophies last year, halted 35 pucks. “He’s an unbelievable goalie, obviously you saw that at the Olympics, and there’s no easy way around it,” Jackson LaCombe said of his Team USA cohort. “We did a good job of getting pucks to the net and (creating traffic).” Before Kreider’s winner, Winnipeg sent the game into overtime with a six-on-five goal. A blocked shot created chaos in the Ducks zone, where Perfetti located the puck and swept it to Connor for an equalizer with 1:22 remaining in regulation. Mintyukov won a board battle and passed to Alex Killorn, who found Poehling. He traversed three lines and beat three defenders en route to a goal off a strong individual effort, his sixth as a Duck to give the hosts their first lead. Winnipeg had reassumed a two-goal lead 87 seconds into the final frame only to see it closed down 5:05 later by the Ducks’ power play and erased completely halfway through the period. Sennecke ripped a low-flying shot off Hellebuyck’s pad that came straight to Mintyukov for a layup, his seventh goal of the season. Before that, it was Carlsson tallying from the doorstep with the extra man. Another low, hard attempt from Sennecke created a rebound in tight that LaCombe batted to Carlsson for his 20th goal of the campaign, matching Kreider’s total. “He’s one of the best goalies in the world. You’re probably not going to beat him clean, so you’ve just got to create rebounds and get bodies at the net, and that’s how we scored those two goals,” Sennecke said. Salomonsson deposited his first NHL goal in picturesque fashion with a far-side bullet from just above the right circle. The goal was ill-gotten, as the officials missed Perfetti tripping Mason McTavish, a play that led directly to the scoring sequence. The two sides swapped scores in the second period, with the Jets taking their initial two-goal lead at the 2:25 mark before the Ducks yanked a goal back with 41 seconds to play. The Ducks’ fourth line toiled low in the zone, and after the Jets hustled to avert the threat there, Trouba’s ostensibly harmless fling from the far corner found the net, appearing to hit Winnipeg defenseman Ville Heinola’s stick first. Trouba’s 10th goal put him one shy of his single-season high. “Scoring that goal late in the second period was huge for us,” Ducks coach Joel Quenneville said. Winnipeg had converted on the power play, isolating Trouba against two attackers. He could only watch as Connor feathered a pass to Vilardi for a one-timer from between the hashmarks. The first 20 minutes featured a fight between heavyweights Ross Johnston and Luke Schenn as well as some stellar goaltending from Dostál during a Jets power play, including an athletic cross-crease stop on Connor. Yet the Jets snagged the only goal of the period, when Iafallo struck 84 seconds into the match. Dylan Samberg started a set breakout for the Jets, then received the puck back and transported it through the neutral zone. He gained the Ducks’ zone and dished to Perfetti, whose cross-ice pass set up Iafallo’s snipe from high in the right circle. Ultimately, however, the Ducks surmounted not one but two two-goal deficits for the second straight game after doing so against Edmonton on Wednesday. “The fans got their money’s worth,” Winnipeg coach Scott Arniel said. “We took a two-goal lead twice, and gave that up.” Next up, the Ducks will welcome the Calgary Flames on Sunday evening.
