Ducks history was made tonight, and everyone has collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
With the Ducks on the powerplay vs. Colorado, Craig Anderson was sprawled on the ice. The puck bounced to Scott Niedermayer who passed it to Selanne. Teemu had a wide open net to bury the puck in which he did.
The entire Ducks bench (after requesting permission to do so from the NHL) exploded off the bench to celebrate with their teammate.
The image is one that will be remembered (at least by me) forever by Ducks fans.
This isn't the first milestone goal Teemu Selanne has scored against the Avalanche.
He scored his 500th goal against them as well.
Teemu's gear used to score the goal will be sent directly to the Hockey Hall of Fame (can anyone really make an argument that he won't be inducted?).
Teemu only needs one goal to tie his childhood Finnish idol and former Duck Jarri Kurri.
