Danton Heinen Signs With Penguins
The Pittsburgh Penguins signed forward Danton Heinen Thursday to a one-year contract worth $ 1.1 million. The former Anaheim Ducks skater recorded seven goals and seven helpers in 43 Ducks games last season.

Ryan Getzlaf Remains A Duck
Anaheim Ducks captain Ryan Getzlaf signed a one-year deal to remain in Southern California next season. The details of how much the contract is worth are unknown at this time. The 16-year veteran has spent his entire career in Anaheim, amassing 279 goals and 703 assists in 1,101 career regular-season contests with the franchise. Unfortunately, […]
Ryan Miller Finishes Off His Career Against Minnesota
Anaheim Ducks goaltender Ryan Miller will play his final NHL game on Saturday when the team faces Minnesota. The 40-year-old announced his retirement on April 29.

Jamie Drysdale Will Suit Up For Anaheim
Anaheim Ducks defenseman Jamie Drysdale will be back in the lineup for Anaheim on Wednesday. The rookie defenseman suffered an upper-body injury on Monday versus St. Louis.

Ryan Getzlaf Scores Lone Ducks Goal In Losing Effort
Anaheim Ducks center Ryan Getzlaf notched his fifth goal of the season in Monday's 3-1 loss to St. Louis. It's his first goal and point in eight games. The Ducks captain still has a bit left in his tank, but he'll be 36 next week and his numbers have suffered a big drop in the […]

Josh Manson Sits Out On Saturday
Anaheim Ducks defenseman Josh Manson will miss Saturday's home game against Vegas. He left Tuesday's 4-1 loss against the Kings early with an apparent head injury and isn't healthy enough to play here. Injuries have limited Manson to just 21 outings this season. He has posted six points with 59 hits, 30 blocks and 17 […]
John Gibson Tries To Stop Four-Game Skid On Saturday
Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson will hope to put an end to his four-game losing streak in Saturday's meeting with Vegas.

Gibson is 8-16-6 for the season with a 2.98 goals-against average, […]
John Gibson Makes 29th Start On Friday
Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson will record his 29th start of the season in Friday's home game against Vegas.

Anaheim Ducks winger Rickard Rakell (upper body) will make his first appearance of the month in Friday's clash with the Avalanche. He re-enters the lineup on the second line. Rakell started last month red-hot with 10 points in five games but faded away quickly as the team started to struggle for results. The Swedish winger […]
John Gibson Comes Up Big In Win For Anaheim
Anaheim Ducks netminder John Gibson stopped 34 of 35 shots on Tuesday as his team beat the San Jose Sharks 5-1. With Anaheim's struggles and Gibson battling injuries, he still has produced a respectable record of 8-12-6, a goals-against-average of 2.93, and a .903 save percentage.

Rickard Rakell Uncertain For Monday's Action
Anaheim Ducks winger Rickard Rakell could miss Monday's road game against Colorado after leaving Sunday's 3-2 overtime win against St. Louis with an injury. The Ducks haven't provided any updates, but his collision with Kyle Clifford looked pretty nasty, and it does look like he's more likely to miss the game than play. Rakell was […]
John Gibson Returns With Win Over St. Louis
