Editing Anaheim Ducks (section)

===Getzlaf and Perry era (2010–2018)===
[[File:Ryan Getzlaf Ducks 2012-02-15.JPG|thumb|Ryan Getzlaf was drafted by the Ducks in 2003, and served as team captain from 2010 to 2022.]]
The 2010–11 season did not begin well for the Ducks, who would lose their first three games. They maintained a .500 throughout record through the first half of the season, but would find their rhythm and finish 47–30–5, good for 99 points and fourth place in the Western Conference. Corey Perry and Jonas Hiller represented the Ducks at the All-Star Game, and Corey Perry went on to have a 50-goal, 98-point season, which won him the [[Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy]] and [[Hart Memorial Trophy]]. He became the first-ever Duck to win the Hart, as well as the first Richard winner as a Duck since Teemu Selanne won the award in 1999. However, Hiller was injured at the All-Star Game and missed the rest of the season. Even though the Ducks had a great season led by Perry, Hiller, Selanne, Visnovsky and Getzlaf, they would end up losing in the first round of the [[2011 Stanley Cup playoffs|2011 playoffs]] to the fifth-seeded Nashville Predators.

Before the [[2011–12 NHL season|2011–12 season]] began, the team mourned the loss of former Mighty Duck [[Ruslan Salei]], who died in a plane crash with several other former NHL players of [[Kontinental Hockey League]] (KHL) club [[Lokomotiv Yaroslavl]]. The team wore a black patch with his former jersey number, 24, in current team numbering. The Ducks started the season with [[2011 NHL Premiere]] games in [[Helsinki]] and [[Stockholm]]. This was the third time in franchise history that they started the regular season with games in Europe. They lost 4–1 to the [[Buffalo Sabres]] in Helsinki but defeated the [[New York Rangers]] 2–1 after a shootout in Stockholm. After a slow start to the season, the Ducks replaced head coach Randy Carlyle with former Washington Capitals head coach [[Bruce Boudreau]]. The rest of the season was mostly forgettable, as the Ducks could not get out of the hole they dug themselves in the first half of the season, and ultimately failed to reach the playoffs in the 2011–12 season.

[[File:Bruce Boudreau Ducks 2012-02-15.JPG|thumb|Bruce Boudreau was the head coach of the Ducks from 2011 to 2016. He coached the team to four consecutive division titles.]]
The [[2012–13 NHL season|2012–13 season]] was shortened to 48 games due to a [[2012–13 NHL lockout|labor lockout]]. When play resumed in January 2013 after a new [[collective bargaining agreement]] was signed, the Ducks opened the season by sweeping a two-game Canadian road trip with a decisive 7–3 victory against the Vancouver Canucks on January 19, followed by a 5–4 decision against the Calgary Flames on January 21. Their home opener came on January 25, also against the Canucks, who would prevail 5–0. The distinction of the Ducks' longest homestand was split between two five-game stretches from March 18–25 and from April 3–10. Anaheim's lengthiest road trip was a six-game haul from February 6–16. Due to the shortened season and the compacted game scheduling, all games were to be played against the Ducks' own Western Conference opponents, and no games were played against Eastern Conference teams. The Ducks finished the season with a 30–12–6 record and would win their second Pacific Division title in franchise history. In the conference quarterfinals, they ended up losing to the seventh-seeded Detroit Red Wings in seven games, despite holding a 3–2 series lead after Game 5.

Entering the [[2013–14 NHL season|2013–14 season]], the 20th anniversary of the franchise, it was announced that Teemu Selanne would be playing in his final NHL season. In the off-season, star forward Bobby Ryan was traded to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for forwards [[Jakob Silfverberg]], [[Stefan Noesen]] and Ottawa's first-round pick in the [[2014 NHL entry draft]], and the Ducks also signed defenseman [[Mark Fistric]],<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=680383 |title=Off-ice official Laing balances hockey with police work |publisher=National Hockey League |date=April 20, 2007 |access-date=September 27, 2016 |archive-date=December 3, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151203151418/http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=680383 |url-status=dead }}</ref> center [[Mathieu Perreault]] and a returning [[Dustin Penner]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id%3D427860 |title=Ducks sign free agent F Penner to one-year, $2M deal |work=[[The Sports Network|TSN]] |agency=The Canadian Press |access-date=July 16, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130719044728/http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=427860 |archive-date=July 19, 2013}}</ref> Despite a bad start suffering a 6–1 mauling at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche, the Ducks followed the opener with seven-straight wins, a run which was repeated and surpassed twice more during the season, including a franchise-record setting ten consecutive wins from December 6 to 28, 2013. At one point of the season, the Ducks won 18 of 19 games, the longest run of one-loss play in the NHL for 45 years. A 9–1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on January 15 saw Anaheim establish a 20–0–2 record at Honda Center, which matched the longest season-opening home points streak in 34 years, as well as setting a franchise record for goals scored in a game (9), and powerplay goals scored in a game (6).<ref>{{cite web |first=Greg |last=Beacham |url=https://sports.yahoo.com/news/ducks-soar-top-nhl-18-231839316--nhl.html |title=Ducks soar to top of NHL with 18 wins in 19 games |publisher=Yahoo! |date=January 17, 2014 |access-date=September 27, 2016 |archive-date=March 5, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160305115922/https://sports.yahoo.com/news/ducks-soar-top-nhl-18-231839316--nhl.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> Dustin Penner was eventually traded to the Washington Capitals, and prior to the NHL trade deadline, the Ducks acquired veteran defenseman [[Stéphane Robidas|Stephane Robidas]] from the Dallas Stars. Behind a Hart Trophy-caliber season from club captain Ryan Getzlaf, solid depth scoring, a steady if unspectacular defense and solid goaltending in the form of Jonas Hiller and rookie [[Frederik Andersen]], many felt that the Ducks were primed to be a top contender for the Stanley Cup.

The Ducks remained towards the top of the NHL standings for the entire season, ending the regular season with a franchise-best 54–20–8 record (116 points) and eventually finishing one point behind the [[Boston Bruins]] in the race for the Presidents' Trophy, awarded to the team finishing the regular season with the best record. The Ducks secured a second consecutive Pacific Division title and the number one seed in the Western Conference. Anaheim faced the eighth-seeded Dallas Stars in the conference quarterfinals and were victorious in six games, marking the first time since 2009 that the Ducks had won a playoff series. In the Western Conference semifinals, the Ducks faced their geographic rival and eventual Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings for the first time ever in the playoffs. In a hotly contested series, the Ducks ultimately went down in seven games to their Southern Californian rivals, losing Game 7 by a score of 6–2 at Honda Center.

On June 27, 2014, the Ducks acquired center [[Ryan Kesler]] and a third-round pick in [[2015 NHL entry draft|2015]] from the Vancouver Canucks.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Ducks|first1=Anaheim|title=Ducks Acquire Ryan Kesler|url=http://ducks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=724111|publisher=Anaheim Ducks|date=June 27, 2014|access-date=June 27, 2014|archive-date=July 7, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140707094857/http://ducks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=724111|url-status=dead}}</ref> In the following season, they would win their third-straight Pacific Division title and finish as the top seed in the West with 109 points. In the [[2015 Stanley Cup playoffs|2015 playoffs]], they swept the [[Winnipeg Jets]] in the first round and beat the Calgary Flames in five games to set up a conference final against the Chicago Blackhawks. After taking three games to two series lead on the strong play of goaltender Frederik Andersen, the Ducks lost the final two games of the series, including Game 7 on home ice. This marked the third-straight season the Ducks had lost a series in Game 7 at home after leading the series three games to two.<ref>{{Cite news|title = Ducks' mental will is lacking in another Game 7 loss|url = http://www.latimes.com/sports/ducks/la-sp-ducks-blackhawks-elliott-20150531-column.html|newspaper = Los Angeles Times|access-date = June 2, 2015|issn = 0458-3035|date=May 30, 2015}}</ref>

On July 15, 2015, the Ducks signed Ryan Kesler to a six-year contract extension totaling a reported $41.25&nbsp;million.<ref>{{cite web|title = Ryan Kesler signs six-year contract extension with Anaheim Ducks|url = http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=774894|access-date = July 17, 2015|archive-date = July 16, 2015|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150716181554/http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=774894|url-status = dead}}</ref> Just prior to the [[2015 NHL entry draft]], the Ducks sent [[Emerson Etem]] and a draft pick to the New York Rangers in exchange for speedy left-wing [[Carl Hagelin]]. They also traded for Vancouver Canucks defenseman [[Kevin Bieksa]] and adding veterans [[Shawn Horcoff]], [[Chris Stewart (ice hockey, born 1987)|Chris Stewart]] and [[Mike Santorelli]]. Entering the [[2015–16 NHL season]], many analysts pegged the Ducks as Stanley Cup favorites. However, scoring struggles led to a slow start, with the team still out of a playoff spot in December.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://nhl.nbcsports.com/2015/12/12/getzlaf-rips-his-team-for-lack-of-professionalism/ |title=Getzlaf rips his team for lack of professionalism |last=Alfieri |first=Joey |work=NBC Sports |date=December 12, 2015|access-date=September 27, 2016}}</ref> The team improved afterwards riding the goaltending of [[John Gibson (ice hockey, born 1993)|John Gibson]].<ref>{{cite news|publisher=National Hockey League|url=http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=795880&navid=DL%7CNHL%7Chome|title=Ducks' Gibson named Rookie of Month for December|date=January 4, 2016|access-date=January 5, 2016|archive-date=October 14, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221014014223/https://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=795880&navid=DL%7CNHL%7Chome|url-status=dead}}</ref> On March 6, 2016, the Ducks set a franchise record with an 11-game winning streak which ended the following night.<ref>{{cite web|title=Ducks set franchise record with 11th straight win|url=https://www.thescore.com/news/975627|website=theScore|last=McLaren |first=Ian|date=March 6, 2016|access-date=June 14, 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Ducks' win streak ended by Washington Capitals in shootout|url=http://www.latimes.com/sports/ducks/la-sp-ducks-capitals-20160308-story.html|work=Los Angeles Times|date=March 7, 2016|access-date=June 14, 2016}}</ref> On March 24, 2016, the Ducks clinched a playoff spot in a 6–5 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.<ref>{{cite web|title=Ducks clinch playoff spot in OT loss to Leafs|url=http://www.foxsports.com/nhl/story/anaheim-ducks-clinch-playoff-spot-in-ot-loss-to-toronto-maple-leafs-032516|work=Fox Sports|date=March 25, 2016|access-date=June 14, 2016}}</ref> However, in the first round of the playoffs, they fell in seven games to the Nashville Predators, which led to the firing of head coach Bruce Boudreau.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/15427172/anaheim-ducks-fire-head-coach-bruce-boudreau|title=Ducks fire coach Bruce Boudreau after Pacific Division title, playoff loss|work=ESPN |agency=Associated Press|date=April 29, 2016|access-date=June 14, 2016}}</ref> On June 14, 2016, the Ducks announced they re-hired former head coach Randy Carlyle.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://ducks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=886014|title=Ducks Name Carlyle Head Coach|publisher=Anaheim Ducks|via=NHL.com|date=June 14, 2016|access-date=June 14, 2016|archive-date=June 16, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160616064655/http://ducks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=886014|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The Ducks finished first in the Pacific Division in 2017 and swept the wild-card Calgary Flames in the first round. On May 10, 2017, the Ducks ended their Game 7 losing streak when they defeated the Edmonton Oilers in the second round, winning the series 4–3 and advancing to the conference finals for the second time in three seasons.<ref>{{cite web|title=Ducks beat Oilers to end home Game 7 heartbreak, advance to West final|url=https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nhl/2017/05/11/anaheim-ducks-edmonton-oilers-game-7-recap/101540436/|website=USA Today|access-date=May 24, 2017|date=May 11, 2017}}</ref> They would fall to the Nashville Predators in Game 6, ending their playoff run. In the [[2017–18 NHL season|following season]], the Ducks failed to win the Pacific Division for the first time since the 2011–12 season. They clinched a playoff berth, but were swept by the San Jose Sharks in the first round.
