PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 10 (UPI) -- Teemu Selanne scored the last two goals in regulation to tie it Saturday and delivered the only goal in the shootout in Anaheim's 4-3 win over Philadelphia.

The Flyers owned a 2-0 advantage deep into the third period, but Selanne gave Anaheim hope by scoring on a slap shot with 6:44 to play. He tied it with 16 seconds remaining, putting another slap shot past Ray Emery.

Selanne was the second Anaheim skater in the shootout and the Ducks clinched the victory when Jonas Hiller stopped Simon Gagne on Philadelphia's third attempt. Hiller had also made saves on shootout attempts by Danny Briere and Mike Richards.

Richards put Philadelphia in front with 6:31 to go in the opening period and Chris Pronger scored with 6:02 remaining in the second. Both goals came on the power play.

Hiller made 34 saves in regulation and Emery stopped 33-of-35 shots.

Selanne has four goals for the season.
