CHICAGO, March 26 (UPI) -- Corey Perry scored twice in the third period Saturday and the Anaheim Ducks posted a key victory with a 2-1 win over Chicago.

Perry fired in the decisive goal with 4 1/2 minutes left in the third period for the Ducks, who used the comeback decision to leapfrog over the Blackhawks into the Western Conference's seventh playoff seed with 89 points.

Ryan Getzlaf and Bobby Ryan logged a pair of helpers each and Ray Emery turned aside 27-of-28 shots for the Ducks, who are mounting a playoff push with their fifth win in six games.

The Blackhawks got a first-period goal from Marian Hossa and nothing thereafter while dropping their fifth game in eight contests.

Corey Crawford absorbed the loss, making 23 saves for Chicago.
