There were no splashy trades, but some NHL teams picked up pieces for a playoff run.
Three cheers for Ryan Getzlaf. The guy who couldn’t score an even-strength goal during the season’s first three months is suddenly the hottest player in the league with 20 points in his past 14 games. Getzlaf’s revival was key to Anaheim’s 12-1-1 record in February, a stretch that set new franchise standards for most wins and points in one calendar month, and sets him up to be included among the first 16 players named to Team Canada on Wednesday.
Biggest jump: Tampa Bay Lightning (9 to 4)
Biggest drop: Carolina Hurricanes (17 to 22)
- The Ducks are almost unstoppable with the extra man.
