Craig Simpson: Edmonton Oilers 1983 - 1985, 1986 - 1988, 1990 Inducted 2001 The Edmonton Oilers Hockey Club entered the National Hockey League in 1979-80 from the World Hockey Association and immediately made an impact on the league. While Wayne Gretzky entered the NHL with the Oilers in 1979 from the WHA, the team wisely used the entry draft to acquire players such as Kevin Lowe, Mark Messier, Glenn Anderson, Paul Coffey, Jari Kurri, Grant Fuhr and others that would become integral pieces of the Oilers dynasty. By the 1982-83 season, after just four years in the league, the Oilers reached the Stanley Cup final, losing to the three-time defending Stanley Cup champion New York Islanders. The next season, 1983-84, the Edmonton Oilers took control and won an amazing 57 regular season games on the way to their first Stanley Cup Championship. The next four years, 1984-85 through 1987-88, would see the Oilers win three more Stanley Cup Championships and firmly entrench themselves as one of the greatest teams in NHL history. After the fourth Stanley Cup in five years the unthinkable happened, Wayne Gretzky was traded to the Los Angeles Kings. After losing to Gretzky's Kings in the 1988-89 playoffs, the Edmonton Oilers were out to prove themselves and completed their return to greatness in 1989-90, by capturing the Stanley Cup for a fifth time in seven years. The Edmonton Oilers of the 1980's revolutionized the game of hockey with their fast-skating, offensive style of play and compiled numerous team and league offensive records, many of which still stand today. Glen Sather, an Alberta Sports Hall of Fame Honoured Member, was the General Manager for all five Stanley Cup Championship teams and the Head Coach during four of the championships. http://ashfm.ca/component/k2/edmonton...
