 ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - Jonas Hiller made 40 saves to earn his fifth NHL shutout, Teemu Selanne scored two goals to overtake Hall of Famer Jean Beliveau on the career points list, and the Anaheim Ducks beat the short-handed Nashville Predators 5-0 on Thursday night.
The shutout was the first for the Ducks since Jan. 17, when Hiller won at Minnesota. He was making his fourth consecutive start since Jean-Sebastien Giguere re-aggravated a groin injury in a loss to Columbus. The Predators were blanked for the fourth time this season after winning three in a row.
The Ducks had won only once in seven games. Selanne increased his career point total to 1,221, breaking a tie with Beliveau for 38th place. Selanne has played in 1,146 regular-season games, 21 more than Beliveau.
