LOS ANGELES, March 20 (UPI) -- Corey Perry's slap shot off Jonathan Quick's glove 1:32 into overtime Saturday sent the Anaheim Ducks to a 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Kings.

Perry scored on a cross-ice pass from Cam Fowler, who picked up the puck when Kings forward Anze Kopita fell near the boards in the Los Angeles zone.
