The Stanley Cup champion Anaheim Ducks signed Ryan Getzlaf to a five-year extension worth $26.625 million that begins next season and runs through 2012-13. The 22-year-old center has seven goals and 14 assists in 19 games this season. "We are extremely pleased to be able to sign Ryan to a long-term deal," general manager Brian Burke said Tuesday. "He's demonstrated great character and work ethic to complement his talent, a rare combination at such a young age." Getzlaf would have become a restricted free agent at the end of the season. The third-year player will earn $5.325 million per year under his new deal.
