    Teemu Selanne keeps passing NHL stars on the career scoring list.

    Selanne scored his 611th NHL goal during a third-period power play, breaking a tie with Bobby Hull to assume sole possession of 15th place, and the Anaheim Ducks beat the Dallas Stars 5-2 on Tuesday night.

    "I've met [Hull] many times, and I never imagined I'd score more goals than him," said the 40-year-old Selanne, who also had an assist to give him 801 points with the Ducks. "It's unbelievable, when you look back at your career, the numbers. Good things happen when you play long.

    "When I read my name in the same story with Bobby Hull or somebody else, it's a big compliment. I'm thankful for all these years."
