Open Extended Reactions
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Joel Quenneville became the second coach in NHL history to win 1,000 games when his Anaheim Ducks rallied to beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-5 on Wednesday night.
Quenneville joined Scotty Bowman in this exclusive hockey club with a milestone win in the Ducks' first game back from the Olympic break. Bowman became the first coach to reach the mark with the Detroit Red Wings on Feb. 8, 1997 -- just one month after Quenneville coached his first game with the St. Louis Blues.
