Todd Marchant scored one of the most iconic goals for the Edmonton Oilers in their Stanely Cup Playoff history. It was Game 7 of the 1997 Western Conference Quarterfinals, and Marchant, then a 23-year-old forward in just his third full NHL season, scored the series-clinching goal at 12:26 of overtime to eliminate the Dallas Stars. Marchant took a pass from Doug Weight, blew past Stars defenseman Grant Ledyard, who stumbled as he tried to turn back, and beat goalie Andy Moog blocker side from in close to give the Oilers a 4-3 win.
