Getzlaf Ties Kariya for 2nd on Ducks' All-Time Points List

Anaheim Ducks forward Ryan Getzlaf tied Paul Kariya for second on the franchise's all-time points list when he put the puck past goaltender Jhonas Enroth during the third period of Sunday's 3-1 win over the Dallas Stars, per the Ducks' official Twitter account.

Getzlaf's goal represented his second point of the game, as he had previously picked up an assist on Corey Perry's first-period goal.

With 669 career points, Getzlaf now ranks behind only Teemu Selanne (988) in Ducks history, albeit with a massive gap of 319 points, per Hockey-Reference.com.

Getzlaf's greatest asset is his ability to set up his teammates for goals, as evidenced by the 466 assists he's racked up thus far in his career. In that category, he sits just 65 back of Selanne's franchise-record 531, with Selanne being known as more of a goal scorer.

Getzlaf's career high in assists for a single season is 66 (2008-09), making it conceivable he passes Selanne for the lead at some point next year.

Thus far in 2014-15, Getzlaf has accumulated 61 points in 61 games, putting him on pace to match his second-best season as a professional. His most productive season came in 2008-09 when he finished with 91 points.

Still only 29 years old, Getzlaf is under contract with the Ducks through the 2020-21 season, allowing the chance for many more points in the future. While it would take a lot to catch Selanne, it's quite possible Getzlaf will eventually leave Anaheim as the all-time franchise leader in both points and assists.

Of course, if any current Duck is going to best Selanne's franchise record of 457 goals, it will likely be 29-year-old forward Corey Perry, who already has 290 to his name, compared to just 203 for Getzlaf.
