Brassard fired a slap shot past Jonas Hiller to hand the Ducks their eighth overtime loss this season. A quarter of Anaheim's setbacks this year have come in overtime.

Brassard's other goal came with 5:13 left in the second period and rallied Columbus into a 1-1 tie.

Teemu Selanne put Anaheim back in front 2:05 later with his second goal of the contest but Jeff Carter delivered a power-play score early in the third to again tie it.

Curtis Sanford made 33 saves to get the victory. Hiller allowed three goals on 21 shots.
