Cogliano passes Bouwmeester for 5th-longest ironman streak of all time

Andrew Cogliano's impressive run of durability reached a new level Tuesday night.

The Anaheim Ducks forward appeared in his 738th consecutive game when he stepped on the ice against the Montreal Canadiens, passing St. Louis Blues defenseman Jay Bouwmeester to move into sole possession of fifth on the all-time list.

Cogliano now owns the longest active ironman streak in the NHL, although he has a long way to go to catch the all-time leader.

Cogliano also made an impact on Tuesday's game, opening the scoring less than six minutes in.

Remarkably, he has yet to miss a game in his 10-year NHL career. He spent his first four seasons with the Edmonton Oilers and is now in his sixth with the Ducks.

Bouwmeester's run extended from March 6, 2004 to Nov. 22, 2014, according to NHL.com.
