 s ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Teemu Selanne had a goal and two assists against his former Colorado teammates, Anaheim rookie Ilya Bryzgalov logged his second consecutive shutout, and the Mighty Ducks opened the Western Conference semifinals Friday night with a 5-0 victory over the Avalanche.
Bryzgalov, who started again over Jean-Sebastien Giguere, is the first rookie to post back-to-back playoff shutouts since Toronto's Frank McCool had three straight in 1945.
The Ducks scored four times in the second period, including goals by Selanne and Joffrey Lupul in the final minute to break the game open. Bryzgalov made 29 saves after stopping all 22 he faced in his Game 7 win at Calgary to clinch the first-round series.
