The Anaheim Ducks came out swinging during Game 3 of the NHL Western Conference quarterfinal hockey playoffs -- earning themselves a 4-2 victory over the Dallas Stars. This marked a seventh loss for the Stars at of eight home playoff games.

Chris Pronger has a hell of a night, scoring two power-play goals which included the game-winning goal as well as the nail-in-the-coffin final goal.

The game was looking to be a shutout until the third period with Anaheim leading 4-0 before Stars captain Brendan Morrow scored two power-play goals.
