Teemu Selanne scored his 611th NHL goal during a third-period power play, breaking a tie with Bobby Hull to assume sole possession of 15th place, and the Anaheim Ducks beat the Dallas Stars 5-2 on Tuesday night, according to an Associated Press report.

Flames left wing Rene Bourque, Blues goaltender Jaroslav Halak and Lightning center Steven Stamkos have been named the NHL 'Three Stars' for the week ending Oct. 24. Bourque scored a League-leading six goals, including three game-winners, and added an assist in four games for the Flames, who posted a 3-1-0 record and climbed to first place in the Northwest Division. Halak posted a 2-0-1 record with a 1.62 goals-against average, .944 save percentage and one shutout, helping the Blues improve to 4-1-2 on the season.

Daniel Alfredsson had his eighth career hat trick and reached 1,000 NHL points and Brian Elliott made 34 saves in the Senators' 4-2 victory over the Sabres on Friday night, according to an ESPN.com report.

Jeremy Roenick showed Thursday night that he could be as colorful and outspoken in retirement as he was during his 20-year NHL career, according to an ESPN.com report. During a 20-minute U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame induction speech, the player many know as "J.R." hailed USA Hockey for growing into a "world superpower," thanked NHL commissioner Gary Bettman, who was in attendance, for "letting me be me" and put to rest any bad blood he ever had with fellow inductee Derian Hatcher. "Wow, what a night," Roenick said. "This award means everything to me."

Panthers goaltender Tomas Vokoun, Blackhawks right wing Marian Hossa and Ducks center Ryan Getzlaf have been named the NHL 'Three Stars' for the week ending Oct. 17. Vokoun stopped 89 of 91 shots in posting a 2-1-0 record with a 0.67 goals-against average and .978 save percentage, highlighted by back-to-back shutouts. Hossa recorded six points (four goals, two assists) in four games last week, helping the defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks post a 3-1-0 record. Getzlaf led all scorers last week with eight points (two goals, six assists) in four games as the Ducks posted a 2-1-1 record.

Whether it was because the celebration was 49 years in the making or just a matter of personal taste, the Blackhawks' eight-carat Stanley Cup championship ring dwarfs its predecessors. The 8-carat Blackhawks' championship ring has 404 diamonds. The team presented the rings at a ceremony Wednesday night, according to an ESPN.com report. "I was sitting next to [coach Joel] Quenneville, and he showed me his [1996 ring] from Colorado," Hawks winger Troy Brouwer said. "And ours is so much bigger and nicer. "But that's how the Blackhawks do things around here, first class."
