Joe DiPenta, D | Kent Huskins, D | Ric Jackman, D | Brad May, LW  Huskins (bottom left) n' DiPenta (top left), 28, were unsung contributors to a rock-ribbed defense. Jackman (top right) was an unlikely hero of Game 4 of Western Conference Finals when he scored 1st goal of his 7-year career to help Ducks beat Red Wings without suspended Chris Pronger. May (bottom right), a 15-year veteran acquired from Colorado during season, supplied added muscle on a team that racked up a league-leading 71 fightin' majors.
