Anaheim Ducks head coach Joel Quenneville joined Scotty Bowman as the only two NHL mentors with 1,000 career wins after leading his team to a 6-5 comeback victory over the Edmonton Oilers. The milestone occurred during Anaheim's third-period rally, with Cutter Gauthier scoring the game-winning goal at 1:14 remaining. Quenneville, 67, downplayed the significance during his postgame interview, stating, "I wasn’t prioritizing the number...

I just wanted to play well tonight." The win marked the Ducks’ eighth multigoal comeback this season under his leadership, propelling them into the Western Conference playoff race. Quenneville’s return to the NHL after a four-year absence—following his ban for mishandling sexual assault allegations during his tenure with the Chicago Blackhawks—has revitalized the franchise.
