Getzlaf has missed the last eight games for Anaheim with an ankle injury. Also sidelined are forward Joffrey Lupul (back) and defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky (hand). Each team is aiming for one final victory to take into the offseason. Edmonton has won three in a row and no longer has to worry about finishing with the fewest points in franchise history. Anaheim is dealing with the disappointment of missing the playoffs one season after getting in as the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference and upsetting San Jose in the first round before getting ousted in a seven-game series by Detroit.
The Oilers have won just two of their last 23 road games both shootout victories over the Kings. … Corey Perry leads the Ducks with a career-high 75 points. Getzlaf has 69 in the 66 games he has played.
Fourth and final meeting. The Ducks will be going for the season sweep. They own 3-2 victories at both the Honda Center and Rexall Place and also a 7-3 road win over the Oilers in the final game before the Olympic break. Ryan Getzlaf returned that night from an ankle sprain to record a pair of power-play goals and four total points. We will post live score and results of this match, as soon as posible.. stay with us.
