ANAHEIM, Calif., March 5 (UPI) -- Lubomir Visnovsky's third goal of the game, with 4 seconds to go in overtime Friday, completed a big comeback that gave the Anaheim Ducks a 4-3 win over Dallas.
The Ducks trailed 3-1 heading into the third period but pulled out a victory that brought them a vital two points in their bid to earn a spot in the playoffs.
