Noah Cates scores on an OT deflection to lift the Flyers past the Ducks, 3-2
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Noah Cates scored on a deflection off goalie Lukas Dostal's skate at 2:17 of overtime and — after a review for offsides on the play — the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Anaheim Ducks 3-2 on Wednesday night.
Pacific Division-leading Anaheim forced overtime on Leo Carlsson's goal with 1:54 left in regulation.
Dan Vladar made 34 saves to help Philadelphia rebound from a 2-1 shootout loss to Columbus at home Saturday night. The Flyers are six points behind Boston and Detroit for the two Eastern Conference wild-card spots.
Luke Glendening had his first goal of the season and Owen Tippett also scored for Philadelphia. Trevor Zegras was held off the scoresheet in his first game in Anaheim since his offseason trade. He scored twice in Philadelphia’s 5-2 home victory over the Ducks on Jan. 6.
Cutter Gauthier also scored for Anaheim, and Dostal stopped 24 shots. The Ducks beat Montreal 4-3 on Sunday night to finish 2-2 on a Canadian swing.
Ducks defenseman Radko Gudas served the third game of a five-game suspension for kneeing Auston Matthews in a loss at Toronto on March 12. Matthews tore the medial collateral ligament in his left knee and will miss the rest of the season.
Defenseman John Carlson played his second straight game for the Ducks after a trade-deadline deal with Washington. His Anaheim debut was delayed by a lower-body injury.
Glendening opened the scoring at 2:50 of the first period, his first goal in 57 games this season with New Jersey and Philadelphia. Tippett made it 2-0 at 7:53 of second with his 23rd of the season. Gauthier cut it to 2-1 on a power play with 38 seconds left in second with his 35th goal of the season.
Philadelphia's Nick Seeler fought Jansen Harkins in the third period.

Flyers: At Los Angeles on Thursday night.

Sergi y Xavi Aragonés, rivales hoy y hermanos siempre

Dos días antes de celebrarse la Copa del Rey de hockey patines, en Sant Sadurní d’Anoia rezuma la calma, solo trastocada por las animadas conversaciones en los bares, ahora que ya hay colgado algún cartel por el pueblo que anuncia el evento. Saben los lugareños que desde este jueves hasta el domingo las calles serán una fiesta, todas las aficiones hermanadas hasta que la bola empiece a rodar. Un festejo que, sin embargo, en la casa de los Aragonés no se celebra todavía, ya que Jordi y Rosa no quieren que haya un perdedor, al menos en el primer envite del torneo, donde se enfrenta el Noia con el Barcelona. Resulta que sus hijos Xavi y Sergi juegan a cada lado de la pista, uno de rojo y el otro de azulgrana. “El Barça es mucho Barça, pero el año pasado ya les ganamos y sabemos que podemos volver a hacerlo”, reflexiona Xavi, con una sonrisa picarona; “pero tampoco me cebé mucho porque él me ha ganado muchas veces y no hizo sangre”. Replica Sergi: “Esta vez no vas a ganar. Llevamos ya un tiempo concentrados y pensando en este encuentro porque no queremos que se repita la historia”. Ambos están sentados alrededor de la mesa familiar y ya han acordado que esta conversación con EL PAÍS será la última sobre el tema hasta que no acabe el duelo, que ahora es momento de distanciarse para pensar hacia dentro.
