Nhl 21 22 season4/30/2023 ![]() How ironic would it be if Edler ends up scoring his 100th goal against the only team he’d ever known on Dec. Edler ended up finishing the season with zero goals in 52 games and was stuck at 99, and became one of the casualties in GM Jim Benning’s summer makeover of the Canucks defense, signing with the Kings instead. The Canucks ended up struggling, and Edler’s quest for 100 became both a point of interest and a cry for help for a fanbase looking for some positivity. It wasn’t a big deal, though, because he had one more year remaining on his contract and the one-off North Division was supposed to be a boon for goal scoring. But the pandemic curtailed the season and Edler scored just five goals, falling one shy of the century mark. Among the 44 players who have played at least 1,000 games in the cap era, Getzlaf is just one of 11 players to have played for just one team.Ĭontext: Entering the 2019-20 season, Edler needed six goals to get to 100, a mark no Canucks defenseman had ever reached. There was a chance that Getzlaf would leave Anaheim for a chance to win another Cup this past summer, but instead he re-signed on a one-year deal worth $3 million to stay with the only team he’s ever known. Getzlaf also has a chance to pass Paul Kariya for third on the all-time goals list if he scores at least 22 goals, and will surely go down in history as one of the best Ducks ever. Speaking of Getzlaf, the long-time Ducks captain needs seven more points to surpass Teemu Selanne’s 988 points as the all-time franchise leader. Ryan Getzlaf – Six points away from first all-time The sad part is that only Getzlaf and Backstrom have Cup rings, while Spezza will continue his quest with the Leafs. The trio would become the 92nd, 93rd and 94th players to reach 1,000 points in league history, and truly they’ve dazzled us with their playmaking ability over the years. They’re the only three active players who are most likely to score their 1,000th career point this season, barring an 83-point season by Patrice Bergeron or a 96-point season by Phil Kessel. Ryan Getzlaf, Nicklas Backstrom, Jason Spezza – 1,000 points
