Anaheim Ducks forward Teemu Selanne definitely played in his last NHL game as the Los Angeles Kings defeated his Ducks 6-2 in Game 7 of the teams' second-round series, but the widedspread Russian and Finnish articles suggesting that Selanne will jump to Jokerit Helsinki to play one more season just got quashed. Per the AP's Greg Beacham:
