Steve McNair death ruled a murder-suicide
Thursday, July 9
Anaheim swept a home-and-home series with Los Angeles and won its third straight contest with a late-game surge that was touched off when Getzlaf's rebound shot bested Jean-Sebastien Aubin 2:08 into the third period.
That gave the Ducks a 3-2 lead and they expanded on it, with goals by Brad May and Samuel Pahlsson.
Patrick O'Sullivan gave Los Angeles some slight hope with a goal 3:19 from the final buzzer, but Rob Niedermayer scored into an empty net with 42 seconds to go.
Anaheim has defeated Los Angeles in three of their four meetings this season.
