Ducks lead Oilers 2-1

The Anaheim Ducks celebrated their first home playoff game in eight years with a dominant 7-4 victory over the Edmonton Oilers.

Beckett Sennecke and Leo Carlsson scored 42 seconds apart in the third period to break the game open and secure a 2-1 series lead.

Despite a goal and an assist from Oilers star Connor McDavid, Edmonton's defense struggled to contain Anaheim's relentless offensive pressure.

The two teams will meet again in Anaheim for Game 4 as the Ducks look to extend their advantage.
