In lacing up his wheels Sunday, Anaheim Ducks winger Andrew Cogliano became just the second player in NHL history to begin a career by dressing in 700 consecutive games.
Cogliano is the sixth player to skate in 700 straight, but joins long-time Montreal Canadiens center Doug Jarvis, who survived his first 964, to do so at the outset of his career.

His run began with 328 consecutive games with the Edmonton Oilers before moving on to Anaheim.
With another clean season next year, Cogliano can own the fourth-longest ironman streak in NHL history behind only Jarvis, Garry Unger, and Steve Larmer.
Knock on wood.
