 #22 Todd Marchant

Another member of the Ducks 2007 Stanley Cup team. Marchant came to the Ducks in 2006 after playing in the league for 10 years. Most of that time came with Edmonton Oilers before a mid-season trade sent him to Anaheim. Marchant played six seasons for the Ducks playing a vital role in the bottom six and on the penalty kill.

He scored 112 points with the Ducks during those six seasons and played for them until he announced his retirement following the 2011 season. Marchant was never the “light up the score-sheet” type of player but he knew his role and played it to perfection. He was a steady force and presence for the young guys and balanced out the bottom six up front. Marchant is someone that Ducks fans could easily forget down the line but this would be an error.

His mark was never shown on the scoresheet but rather in the intangibles. It was in the chemistry, and the leadership he provided. This was a guy who knew what it took to win and how to get the most out of the young guys on the roster. A great locker room guy as well as a great hockey mind as he still works for the Anaheim Ducks as the Director of Player Development.
