ANAHEIM, Calif., March 19 (UPI) -- Teemu Selanne scored just 34 seconds into overtime Wednesday, giving Anaheim a 4-3 victory over Nashville.

It was the 1,400th point of Selanne's career. He became the 45th player in NHL history to reach that milestone.

Anaheim faced a 2-1 deficit as the game reached the midway point, but Andrew Ebbett tied it on the power play with 8:47 to go in the second. The Ducks took the lead 11:38 into the third on Bobby Ryan's power-play goal, but Nashville tied it on Joel Ward's slap shot with 2:45 left in regulation.

Jean-Sebastian Giguere made 21 saves in what was Anaheim's second win in three games. Nashville has dropped four out of six.
