Before there was Teemu Selanne, there was Jari Kurri, the original "Finnish Flash."  Kurri is arguably the first real hockey megastar from Finland, and on a line with Wayne Gretzky, his talents were able to shine.

Much like it was easy to decree that Wayne Gretzky was the greatest Edmonton Oiler of all-time, we find it quite simple to state that Mark Messier is a firm number two for this list.  This is no small praise, as when you look through the top ten, there are many Hall of Famers who was responsible for the Oilers' dynasty of the 1980s.

So, where do we start?

You hear the term “prodigy” thrown around a lot, but in terms of what a hockey prodigy was/is, there is nobody where those words suited better than Wayne Gretzky.

When Indiana knew they were going to have trade Paul George, they landed Victor Oladipo, who lived up to his potential, and Domantis Sabonis, a Center who had played only one year at OKC.
