Major Career Milestones

Alex Killorn – 1,000 NHL Games

The 35-year-old winger is set to reach a major milestone this season, sitting just 50 games shy of 1,000 in his NHL career. Killorn also enters the year 61 points away from hitting 600 career points. Now in his third season with Anaheim, he remains a key veteran presence on a developing Ducks roster. He joined the team in 2023 on a four-year deal after 11 seasons with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Veterans Approaching Career Benchmarks

Chris Kreider – 600 NHL Points

A longtime Ranger and one of the Ducks’ biggest offseason additions, Kreider begins his first season outside New York with 582 points in 883 games. With two years remaining on his deal, he needs just 18 more points to reach the 600-point milestone.

Mikael Granlund – 200 Career Goals

Granlund has 179 goals heading into the season and is coming off a 22-goal campaign. He’s scored 21+ goals in three different seasons and will reach 200 with a similar showing this year.

Ryan Strome – 500 Career Points

Strome enters the season with 480 career points and is just 20 away from reaching 500. He’s recorded 41 points in each of his three seasons with Anaheim and has missed only three games since signing in 2022, providing steady production and reliability down the middle.

Ryan Poehling – 100 Career Points

Acquired in the Trevor Zegras trade this summer, Poehling brings a two-way presence to the Ducks’ bottom six. He enters the season just 5 points shy of the 100 mark.

Radko Gudas – 200 Career Points

Known more for his physicality than offense, Gudas sits at 198 points over 829 NHL games. At 35, and now serving as team captain, he’s also named to Czechia’s preliminary roster for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Gudas will be joined by Dostal at the Winter Olympics, and possibly Petr Mrazek as well. 

Frank Vatrano – 200 Career Goals

Coming off a 21-goal season and a career-high 37 the year before, Vatrano has proven to be a steady offensive contributor. With 181 career goals, he’s just 19 away from the 200 mark. He’s only missed two games since joining Anaheim in 2022.

Next Wave Closing In on Milestones

Leo Carlsson – 100 Career Points

Anaheim’s future franchise center has 74 points entering his sophomore season. After a 45-point rookie campaign and still just 20 years old, Carlsson could hit the century mark before his 21st birthday in December.

Jackson LaCombe – 100 Career Points

LaCombe had a breakout 43-point season from the blue line and currently sits at 60 career points. If he maintains his pace, the 24-year-old defenseman will hit the century mark in 2025–26.

Troy Terry – 300 Career Points

Terry sits at 285 points and is also approaching 200 career assists, currently at 169. A steady contributor in Anaheim’s top six, he’s within reach of both milestones this season.

Mason McTavish – 100 NHL Assists

McTavish is just 20 assists away from the 100-assist plateau. The 22-year-old former third-overall pick continues to emerge as a top two-way center and key part of the Ducks’ rebuild.
