Jason Spezza
Ottawa Senators
1 goal, 1 assist, plus-1, 1 shot, 11:22 ice time, 16 shifts
Ottawa needed to do something drastic to light a fire under its slumping offense. And 2001 No. 2 overall draft pick Jason Spezza rode in on his white horse and saved the Senators' season with a great game in his playoff debut.

Patrick Lalime
Ottawa Senators
10-6, 1.82 GAA, .923 save percentage in playoffs
Patrick Lalime only has been the third best goalie from Quebec in the postseason -- behind J.S. Giguere and Martin Brodeur. But Lalime let in just a screened wrister by Scott Stevens in Game 5, stopping the Devils' other 21 shots.

Ottawa Senators
1 goal, 0 assists, plus-1, 3 shots, 17:47 ice time, 26 shifts
While the Sens' power play remained in a funk early in the game, their penalty-killing unit decided to go on the offensive. Todd White's short-handed goal was keyed by Magnus Arvedson's fierce forecheck and centering pass.
