Teemu Selanne<\/a> Wins First Stanley Cup with Ducks<\/h3>\n

2007:<\/strong> The Anaheim Ducks<\/a> become the first California team to hoist the Stanley Cup. Travis Moen<\/a><\/strong> scores twice and the Ducks limit the Ottawa Senators<\/a> to 13 shots in a 6-2 Game 5 win. Scott Niedermayer<\/a> <\/strong>gets an assist and earns the Conn Smythe Trophy for playoff MVP.<\/p>\n
