greatest player in franchise history? or is that still teemu's honor?
Certainly it's Teemu's and I don't think that'll change for a generation.greatest player in franchise history? or is that still teemu's honor?
It's teemus for a little while longer, but the mantle will be passed. I think once he takes over points and games playedgreatest player in franchise history? or is that still teemu's honor?

Teemu is no doubt the more prolific offensive talent but Getzy at his peak was a two way force who did it all and stepped up his game massively in the post season. His 2009 and 2017 playoffs were the best (non goalie) post season performances in franchise history and I don’t think it’s particularly close.
I would lean Getzlaf personally. They’re my two favorite players ever, you can’t go wrong with either choice.
To me it's something similar.I think Teemu is the best player but Getzlaf was the best Duck.
It wouldn't shock me in the least to hear he wants to be GM one day. Especially being so close to BM for so long. (Players don't usually get just one GM for nearly their whole careers anymore). Getz has probably picked his brain a time or two.
Just seems like he'd have that builder mentality and always be looking to improve. Plus he'd probably take immense pride in building a Cup contender. Kind of feels like maybe that's why he's so content with not chasing a cup elsewhere--he'd rather win it by building the franchise back up.
can't believe it's been over 15 years since he made his debutRemember when Getzlaf's leadership abilities were questioned after his first year as captain? Good times. Also can't believe it's 11 years since he became captain. Time flies.
Teemu's last regular season game was also 7 years ago.can't believe it's been over 15 years since he made his debut
feels like just a few years ago he and perry were wearing #51 and #61
He def slowed down... he only really dominated a hand full of games.... at this point he is a 3c at best17 points in 48 games this season totally sad by this
