Golden Knights’ Furious Third-Period Rally Falls Short in 4-3 Loss to Ducks

The loss was Vegas' first under coach Ryan Craig and provided another chapter in a budding Pacific Division rivalry after the teams met in the second round of last season's Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Beckett Sennecke opened the scoring with eight seconds remaining in the first period, a late-period strike that changed the complexion of a game Vegas had controlled territorially.

Alex Killorn scored 1:33 into the second period, and Jeff Malott followed just 55 seconds later to make it 3-0. Leo Carlsson extended Anaheim's advantage at 7:03, leaving Vegas down four before the game reached its midpoint.
