Late rallies for overtime victories in Columbus and Boston were underscored both by pulling a pair of top players from the lineup as well as how those players responded.
Ducks rookie Leo Carlsson, top left, celebrates with teammates Trevor Zegras, right, and Sam Carrick after he scored a goal to cut their deficit to 3-2 late in the third period of their game against the Boston Bruins on Thursday night in Boston. The Ducks scored again to tie it with less than 15 seconds left and then won, 4-3, in overtime. The Ducks arrived for a sojourn in Philadelphia, where on Saturday they’ll clash with the Flyers, another markedly improved team in the early season.
Cronin said Zegras, whom he called “a great person and a great player,” was among the most enthusiastic Ducks in congratulating his teammates after the victory in Columbus. That effervescence carried into the game in Boston. There, Zegras was dynamic offensively, perhaps no more than on a daring drive to the net during overtime when he nearly ended the game by splitting two defenders and attempting to finish with an elaborate between-the-legs move.
“To have an impactful performance in every game he plays in, while balancing out his strength and conditioning schedule, speaks to his maturity level and his elite status,” said Cronin, who offered that Carlsson generated double-digit scoring chances on the Ducks’ proprietary charts.
