Lightning line up to shake Ryan Getzlaf's hand in the final game he plays against Corey Perry

For the final time Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry shared the ice together during an NHL game.

With Getzlaf's Anaheim Ducks visiting Perry's Lightning this evening and with Getzlaf already announcing his retirement at the end of this season earlier this month, the longtime teammates took to the ice together for the last time.

To start the evening off, Lightning centerman Pierre-Edouard Bellemare stepped aside and let winger Perry take the opening faceoff against his old buddy.

But the best part of the evening came after the game when all of the Lightning's players stayed out late to personally shake Getzlaf's hand and congratulate him on an outstanding career. The absolute highlight came when Getzlaf and Perry hugged it out at center ice.

Hell ya... that's what it's all about.
