Ryan Getzlaf breaks tie, Ducks beat Flames to take 2-0 series lead
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Lance Bouma made the right play, the Calgary Flames could agree on that.
What happened as a result left the Flames in disbelief and staring at a 2-0 deficit in their first-round series on the unlikeliest of bounces.
Ryan Getzlaf was credited with the winning power-play goal with 4:46 remaining, John Gibson made 35 saves and the Anaheim Ducks defeated the Flames 3-2 in Game 2 on Saturday night.
Getzlaf’s pass struck Bouma’s skate where it improbably redirected into the air and past goalie Brian Elliott to give the Ducks an unlikely win after squandering a two-goal lead.
