Anaheim Ducks Tickets – Selanne Gets 600th Goal, Ducks Add New Talent
The Anaheim Ducks are fighting toward the end of the regular season, hoping to seal a spot in the playoffs. Amidst the drive, they were able to take a minute to celebrate following the Ducks’ 5-2 defeat of the Colorado Avalanche on March 21. The win itself was a reason to bask in the glory of victory, but one player’s accomplishments overshadowed the glory of one win.
The player is right winger Teemu Selanne, who notched his 600th goal during the victory. In the game, he also tallied an assist. Other goals in the game came from Jason Blake, Matt Beleskey, Troy Bodie and Ryan Getzlaf. Selanne’s goal came early in the second period, with assists by Scott Niedermayer and Corey Perry.
The goal makes him only the 18th player in NHL history to reach the landmark and it is especially sweet for Selanne, as he is expected to retire following the 2009-10 season. Other players to reach the 600 mark include legends like Wayne Gretzky, Brett Hull and Mark Messier. The Ducks’ website had a breakdown of his impressive journey toward the 600 mark. Out of those 600 goals, 373 were scored wearing an Anaheim Ducks’ uniform. The rest were scored with the San Jose Sharks (64), Colorado Avalanche (16) and now-defunct Winnipeg Jets (147). He faced 132 different goalies for those goals, with 114 multi-goal games. Selanne also showed his resilience on the road by scoring 279 of his career goals at away games.
In March, the Ducks also went out to ensure their star power continues by adding a slew of new names. Below is a list of the new additions:
Nick Bonino: Bonino made a splash with his team at Boston University, where he just finished his junior season. He was part of the BU team that won the NCAA Championship in the 2008-09 season. The 21-year-old signed a two-year entry-level contract. San Jose originally picked him up in the 2007 NHL Entry Draft, but the Ducks traded for Bonino and goalie Timo Pielmeier and handed over left wing Travis Moen and defender Kent Huskins.
Jake Newton: The Ducks snatched up defenseman Jake Newton, who was a free agent. The 21-year-old played his freshman season at Northeastern University this season, and the Ducks signed up to an entry-level contract that lasts three years. Prior to his time with Northeastern, he also played for the U.S. Hockey League’s Lincoln Stars.
Rob Bordson: Left winger Rob Bordson will forgo his final season with the University of Minnesota-Duluth to play for the Ducks. Also a 21-year-old, Bordson signed a two-year deal with the Ducks that is rumored to be worth around $900,000.
The Ducks also recalled left wing Kyle Calder from the American Hockey League’s Toronto Marlies. The 31-year-old has already played 14 games with the Ducks this season. Throughout his long career, he has also played with NHL teams like the Chicago Blackhawks, Philadelphia Flyers, Detroit Red Wings and Los Angeles Kings.
