NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Anaheim rookie Beckett Sennecke collected his third goal of the season and the Ducks beat the Nashville Predators 5-2 on Tuesday night.

The 19-year-old Sennecke dropped to one knee to blast a feed from Mason McTavish past Juuse Saros with just over three minutes left in the second period to give the Ducks a two-goal lead they wouldn't come close to squandering. Sennecke, the third overall pick in this year's draft, now has five points in five games for Anaheim.

Ross Johnston scored his first goal of the season and added two assists. Cutter Gauthier, Leo Carlsson and Troy Terry also scored for Anaheim. Jacob Trouba had two assists and Lukas Dostal made 26 stops.

Anaheim played without veteran forward Chris Kreider, who missed the game due to an illness.
