Jean-Guy Trudel's goal with 3:35 left lifted the American Hockey League West-leading Houston Aeros to a 4-3 victory over the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks at the Gardens.

        The Aeros extended their season-opening winning streak to five.

        Cam Severson had a pair of goals for Cincinnati, which has squandered third-period leads in three of its four games.

        “We've shot ourselves in the foot,” Ducks coach Brad Shaw said.
