Ryan Getzlaf: The 22-year-old center has seven goals and 14 assists in 19 games this season. 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. He had 25 goals and 33 assists, both career-highs, while playing in all 82 regular-season games last season. He led the Ducks in scoring during the playoffs with seven goals and 10 assists.

Jason Spezza: he contributed three assists for the visiting Senators in their 4-3 victory over Montreal on Monday. It was the 24-year-old center's fourth multipoint game as his previous such effort came when he had two assists in a loss to Carolina on Oct. 11. His last three-point performance (also three assists) came in an Oct. 8 win over New Jersey. Spezza has a goal and 15 assists in 13 games this season.
Spezza signed a seven-year, $49-million contract extension earlier this month. He has 83 goals and 186 assists for 269 points in 259 career games.
