16. Esa Tikkanen

Esa Tikkanen was one of the early stars from Finland in the National Hockey League, but what he is probably known mostly for is being one of the best (infamous) agitators in NHL history.

The first seven seasons of Jordan Eberle's career were spent in Edmonton, where the player performed well after being named by TSN, the greatest junior player in Canadian National Team history.  Eberle’s first season saw him accumulate 43 Points, which would be topped the year after with 76 Points, which was the best year he would have with the Oilers.  That year, he would finish second in Lady Byng voting and go to the All-Star Game.

There was no doubt that the Edmonton Oilers would select Connor McDavid with their number one pick in 2015.  He was the consensus top prospect and was pegged as a future Hart Trophy winner.  Entering his fifth season, he has already done that.

Charlie Huddy is one of the few players who was with the Edmonton Oilers for all five of their Stanley Cups, which was an incredible accomplishment considering he went undrafted.
