ANAHEIM, Calif. — – Darren Raddysh<\/a> scored midway through overtime, and the Tampa Bay Lightning<\/a> blew three one-goal leads before beating the Anaheim Ducks<\/a> 4-3 on Wednesday for their fifth consecutive victory.<\/p>\n

Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper celebrated his 1,000th regular-season game in charge with his 595th victory as the longest-tenured bench boss in the NHL. The Lightning’s coach since March 2013 has also led them in 155 playoff games, won two championships and reached four Stanley Cup Finals.<\/p>\n

Nikita Kucherov<\/a> had a goal and an assist as the Lightning skated off with a win in the opener of their three-game California road trip when Raddysh converted a pass from Brandon Hagel<\/a>, who had three assists.<\/p>\n

J.J. Moser<\/a> and Brayden Point<\/a> also scored for Tampa Bay, and Andrei Vasilevskiy<\/a> made 24 saves.<\/p>\n

Mason McTavish<\/a> tied it on a power play with 6:58 left in regulation for the Ducks, who have lost four straight and eight of 10. Jansen Harkins<\/a> and Beckett Sennecke<\/a> also scored, and Lukas Dostal<\/a> stopped 24 shots as the Ducks earned a point for only the second time in six games.<\/p>\n

Moser opened the scoring in the first period with his first goal since agreeing to an eight-year, $54 million contract extension<\/a> last weekend.<\/p>\n

Anaheim scored its first two goals off turnovers, with the 19-year-old Sennecke getting the 12th of his rookie season early in the third period.<\/p>\n

Kucherov scored his 18th goal on a cross-ice pass from Hagel during a power play four minutes later, but the Ducks evened it again when Pavel Mintyukov<\/a> made an exceptional play at the blue line to set up McTavish for his 10th goal.<\/p>\n

The Ducks announced during the game that forward Frank Vatrano<\/a> will be out for about six weeks with a broken shoulder incurred in Anaheim’s loss to the Los Angeles Kings<\/a> last Saturday.<\/p>\n

Lightning: At Los Angeles on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Ducks: Host Minnesota on Friday.<\/p>\n
