Ducks' Getzlaf, Cogliano hit milestones in win over Sharks
A couple of milestones for a pair of lifelong Anaheim Ducks.
With an assist on Patrick Eaves' first-period goal Saturday, captain Ryan Getzlaf recorded the 800th point of his NHL career.
Only one other man has hit that milestone as a Duck: Teemu Selanne. That's the company you want to keep, kids.

Andrew Cogliano, meanwhile, played in his 776th straight game Saturday, tying Craig Ramsay for the fourth-longest ironman streak in NHL history.
The 29-year-old, drafted in 2005 by the Edmonton Oilers, has remarkably played in every game since he broke into the league in 2007.
The Ducks beat the San Jose Sharks 2-1 on Saturday, with Jonathan Bernier again turning in a strong performance. He made 33 saves, as Anaheim moved within four points of first-place San Jose.
