WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) Jakob Silfverberg scored at 4:01 of overtime to lift the Anaheim Ducks to a 3-2 victory over the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday.

Silfverberg's 13th goal of the season came as he was left all alone in front of Jets goalie Michael Hutchinson, who made a glove save on the first attempt but couldn't corral the rebound, allowing Silfverberg to score.

Jamie McGinn and Ryan Kesler scored for the Ducks in regulation, and John Gibson made 27 saves for his 17th win.
