Facing the Calgary Flames on Sunday, Anaheim Ducks forward Andrew Cogliano played in his 680th consecutive game, passing Henrik Sedin for the sixth-longest such streak in NHL history.

Cogliano has not missed a game since breaking into the league with the Edmonton Oilers at the start of the 2007-08 season. After four seasons with the Oilers, the 28-year-old is now playing in his fifth season with the Ducks. He entered Sunday's game with seven goals and 12 assists in 57 games.
The Toronto native would need to remain in the lineup for almost another three-and-a-half seasons to match the all-time record of 964 straight games set by retired forward Doug Jarvis - who never missed a regular-season game in his 13-year career with the Montreal Canadiens, Washington Capitals, and Hartford Whalers.
Current St. Louis Blues defenseman Jay Bouwmeester currently sits fifth all time with a 737-game streak that ended in November 2014.
