Thanks Anaheim.

I was fortunate to have an incredible 14-year journey playing for the Ducks, and I am incredibly grateful. First of all, I would like to thank all my teammates over the years. I’ve made some of my closest friends through this organization and created relationships that I know will last a lifetime, including with the special group of guys on the current team. When I reached the NHL level at the age of 18, I had great mentorship from the leadership of that team, and it made my transition much easier. I would personally like to thank the Niedermayer family for welcoming me into their home and welcoming me as their 5th child! Thanks to Getzy, Teemu, Saku, Perry and Beauch for showing me what it means to be a true leader and a great teammate.
