Ducks' Getzlaf records 700th point in win over Flyers
Ryan Getzlaf picked up his 700th NHL point on Sunday night. As you might have guessed, it was via an assist to Corey Perry.
Anaheim finished 2015 on a high note at Honda Center with a 4-2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. Getzlaf opened the scoring for the Ducks with a power-play goal in the first period but it was his assist in the second that notched the milestone point.

Down a goal, Getzlaf's redirected attempt found Perry amid a scrum at the front of the Flyers' net. Despite nearly fanning on his attempt, the Ducks winger slide his close-range effort past the line tying the game 2-2.

Perry would later net the game-winner early in the third period before Shawn Horcoff potted a shorthanded goal to wrap up the win.
Getzlaf is second on the all-time Ducks' scoring list between Duck legends Teemu Selanne and Paul Kariya.
