Looking for an offensive spark and its first win on the five-game road trip, head coach Dean Evason jumbled his lines including putting Adam Fantilli on the first line.

Despite a late push, the Columbus Blue Jackets were unable to find the equalizer on Sunday night in Ahaheim, falling to the Ducks 4-2.

Daniil Tarasov made 25 saves in his return to the net. John Gibson made his season debut after a September appendectomy, making 38 saves.

Here's how it went down:


1st Period

(3:13 — 1-0 ANA):

Brett Leason's first goal of the season started the scoring in this game to give the Ducks a 1-0 lead. Cutter Gauthier and Ross Johnston picked up assists on the play. The Anaheim goal broke a streak of two straight games in which Columbus scored first.


2nd Period

(4:22 — 2-1 ANA):

The Ducks responded early in the second period to regain the lead thanks to Jackson LaCombe. Radko Gudas and Troy Terry had the assists.

3rd Period

(10:20 — 3-1 ANA):

(18:20 — 4-2 CBJ):

Isac Lundestrom's second of the year on the empty net sealed the Ducks' 4-2 victory.
