Ryan Getzlaf

An Anaheim Ducks era will come to an end Sunday when longtime captain Ryan Getzlaf plays his farewell game on home ice with the St. Louis Blues in town.

After blowing a 4-1 third-period lead, the Blues won in overtime on Justin Faulk's second goal of the game. "We just kind of let our foot off the gas," Faulk said. The Ducks (30-35-14, 74 points) are playing out the string after a difficult season. "Seventeen years here," Ducks forward Trevor Zegras told NHL.com. "He is the Anaheim Ducks to me. All of us young guys look up to him as the Anaheim Duck. It's very cool in my opinion to say we got to play with him." People are never going to remember what you said or what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel."

(AP) — Ryan Getzlaf scored his final NHL point with a behind-the-back pass to Adam Henrique for a goal with 2:41 to play, and the longtime Anaheim captain wrapped up a 17-year career spent entirely with the Ducks in a 6-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues on ...

After Kyrou and Tarasenko got credit for goals on deflected shots, an unmarked Barbashev put the Blues ahead with his 26th goal from point-blank range before Faulk added his 16th goal. After a pregame tribute video, Getzlaf and his wife and four children joined team owners Henry and Susan Samueli at center ice. An often-brilliant passer with impressive ice vision and a mean streak, he became the 92nd player in NHL history to score 1,000 points last November — and only the 45th to do it with one team. The sellout crowd at Honda Center repeatedly roared for the Ducks' longtime captain and playmaking center from his first step on the ice to his final, teary departure. He won the Stanley Cup in 2007 alongside Corey Perry, his fellow 2003 draftee and best friend.

St. Louis (48-20-11, 107 points) already knows it will face Minnesota in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, with both teams now battling for home-ice advantage. Zegras passed Bobby Ryan for the club's rookie scoring mark with a second-period power-play goal, taking a vintage Getzlaf cross-seam pass and beating Kings netminder Jonathan Quick with a wrist shot over the glove. The night will feature celebrations of Getzlaf's incredible 17-year NHL career, from which he will retire as Anaheim's all-time leading scorer in both the regular season and playoffs as well its record holder in games played and assists.

He's the only Anaheim player to record at least 1,000 points and play in at least 1,000 NHL games. This has been the best journey of my life. "This has been the most special night of my life. Towels imprinted with his No. 15 jersey were draped across the backs of the seats. He won't play in Anaheim's final two games next week, both on the road. "I'm going to try and enjoy it."

“I was thinking that he was in a good spot. “I was a little nervous,” he said. It was a lot more than I expected and it was extremely emotional. It hit me in the heart to see that many people showed up tonight.” A standing-room-only crowd of 17,446 roared and chanted and cheered Getzlaf in his farewell game. In a few strides, Getzlaf whipped a behind-the-back pass to Adam Henrique.

Ryan Getzlaf finished his 17-year career spent entirely with the Ducks in a 6-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues on Sunday night.

He was far and away the best player in the city and the province, and someone that everybody tried to be as good as. An often-brilliant passer with impressive ice vision and a mean streak, he became the 92nd player in NHL history to score 1,000 points last November — and only the 45th to do it with one team. Ryan Getzlaf skated in with the puck on his stick and a clear path to goal. “I was thinking he’s in a spot (where) he should shoot, but it’s Getzy, so of course he makes a spin-o-rama pass right on the tape. Nearly every time when he could have gone for personal glory — whether in trying to score more goals, or in leaving the struggling Ducks for a better team late in his career — Getzlaf chose his teammates first. The standing-room-only crowd at Honda Center repeatedly roared for Getzlaf from his first step on the ice to his final, teary departure.

Getzlaf finished his prolific career with 1,019 points, the 88th-most in league history — but few of those points will be more memorable than his final assist. "Absolutely not," Getzlaf said when asked if he considered a shot.

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Ryan Getzlaf a inscrit un dernier point dans la LNH grâce à une passe parfaite, de dos, à l'intention d'Adam Henrique qui lui a permis de ...

Jordan Kyrou, Vladimir Tarasenko, Ivan Barbashev et Justin Faulk ont obtenu un but et une aide pour les Blues, qui ont remporté 14 de leurs 16 dernières parties. Maxime Comtois et Gerry Mayhew ont également touché la cible pour les Ducks, qui ont baissé pavillon pour la 19e fois en 22 matchs. Getzlaf, qui avait amplement de temps pour décocher un tir, y est allé d’une passe en tourniquet et a fait — une fois de plus — briller ses coéquipiers. En plus de sa Coupe Stanley avec les Ducks en 2007, il a totalisé 1019 points, le 88e total dans la LNH.

Les Ducks, hier, accueillaient les Blues de Saint-Louis au Honda Center. Il s'agissait du dernier match à domicile pour Ryan Getzlaf.
