Swedish star Leo Carlsson could have been a great hero for his Anaheim team. The 21-year-old's tying goal to make it 3-3 early in the third period gave the home team hope of securing a playoff spot for the first time in eight years.
Instead, Marco Rossi became the game hero for long-awaited Vancouver when he made it 4–3 on the power play in overtime.
Anaheim has two games left to play and is three points ahead of Los Angeles, which has three games left, in its division. Anaheim's next game is on Wednesday, away to Minnesota.
