Dominik Hasek
Detroit Red Wings
24 saves, 48-39 career postseason record
The Red Wings needed Dominik Hasek to steal a game to keep their season alive and the Dominator did just that. Though Colorado struggled offensively in the early going, Hasek answered every Avs scoring chance by making several spectacular sprawling stops.

1 goal, 0 assists, plus-1, 4 shots, 16:44 ice time, 25 shifts
If Brendan Shanahan's shot late in Game 5 didn't take a cruel bounce off the post, the Wings' 2-0 Game 6 win could've wrapped up the series. But Shanahan scored his first goal of the series late in the first period, cleaning up Patrick Roy's sloppy glovework.

Steve Yzerman
Detroit Red Wings
0 goals, 1 assist, plus-1, 1 shot, 22:24 ice time, 30 shifts
Biting his lip to fight through the agony of his ripped up knee, Steve Yzerman played another brilliant game at both ends of the ice. Stevie Y won 12 of his 16 faceoffs and was the best all-around player in the game.
