The Anaheim Ducks received goals from Chris Kreider, Beckett Sennecke, and Jacob Trouba, as they relied on strong defense and timely scoring to stave off the Stars.Lukas Dostal was the backbone of the Anaheim Ducks\u2019 effort, turning away 24 shots and holding off several final attempts by Dallas to score. The Ducks have struggled in obtaining points, having gone 0-8-1 in their current losing skid to enter this important final stretch of the season. <\/p>\n<p>Chris Kreider and Beckett Sennecke led offense as Anaheim Ducks dominated during Dallas Stars\u2019 struggles<\/p>\n<p>Stars vs. Ducks | NHL Highlights | January 13, 2026<\/p>\n<p>The Anaheim Ducks opened the scoring about halfway through the second period as Chris Kreider hit the rush during a delayed penalty and shot the puck from high above the right hashes. It was a much-needed boost for the Ducks, who had been playing a close, low-scoring game until then.\u201cWhen we play the right way, we are getting the results,&#8221; Lukas Dostal said. &#8220;It was a long time coming for us. Hopefully, the dark times are over, and we can just build on (this win).\u201dBeckett Sennecke extended the lead with a hard-won goal to start the third period by pulling the loose puck from behind the net and snapping it with his backhand while falling to the ice in front of the crease.&#8221;We didn&#8217;t want to have that one to get to 10 games,&#8221; Sennecke said of the losing streak. &#8220;We&#8217;re super pumped to finally get back into that win column and, hopefully, go on a little bit of a heater here.&#8221;Jacob Trouba sealed the victory with an empty net goal in the final seconds of the game, highlighting a disciplined and organized performance from Anaheim.Roope Hintz, forward and alternate captain for the Dallas Stars, pulled the deficit to 2-1 towards the end of the third period after Dallas pulled goalie Casey DeSmith for the additional skater, but the rally by the Stars came too little, too late. DeSmith made 22 saves for the Stars, who were missing top defenseman Miro Heiskanen because of personal reasons.&#8221;We had a hard, hard game last night,&#8221; Dallas coach Glen Gulutzan said. &#8220;Tonight, they were desperate. You could see that it was going to be a hard game. We have to be ready for those moments, right, because every team in the League right now is desperate for points.&#8221; Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/sports\/nhl\/news\/anaheim-ducks-re-sign-lukas-dostal-to-five-year-32500000-contract\/articleshow\/122676507.cms\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Anaheim Ducks re-sign Lukas Dostal to five-year, $32,500,000 contract<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Anaheim Ducks vs. Dallas Stars (via Getty Images) Goalie Lukas Dostal outperformed on Tuesday night as the Anaheim&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":407153,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5117],"tags":[2210,233,1199,1542,196,147,5278,5,47344,3124,3041,4,106,768,197],"class_list":{"0":"post-407152","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas-stars","8":"tag-anaheim","9":"tag-anaheim-ducks","10":"tag-beckett-sennecke","11":"tag-chris-kreider","12":"tag-dallas","13":"tag-dallas-stars","14":"tag-dallasstars","15":"tag-hockey","16":"tag-hockey-game-recap","17":"tag-jacob-trouba","18":"tag-lukas-dostal","19":"tag-nhl","20":"tag-nhl-news","21":"tag-sidney-crosby","22":"tag-stars"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/115893511467803661","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/407152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=407152"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/407152\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/407153"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=407152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=407152"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=407152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
