Following the 1995–96 season, Ducks captain Randy Ladouceur retired, leaving the team's leadership position vacant. After serving as an alternate captain the previous year, Kariya was chosen as the third captain in team history, following Ladoceur and Troy Loney.[50] At 21 years old, he was the youngest active captain in the NHL and remained so until defenceman Bryan McCabe became captain of the New York Islanders two years later. Also during the off-season, there was speculation that the Mighty Ducks would acquire Wayne Gretzky, whose contract had expired with the St. Louis Blues. Gretzky's agent had publicly declared that the All-Star centre had interest in joining the Ducks, particularly to play with Kariya and Selänne, though the team had not contacted him with an offer. Instead, the Ducks signed 36-year-old centre Jari Kurri from the New York Rangers. Following the signing, Ducks Head Coach Ron Wilson commented that "A veteran player is much better prepared to play with guys like Teemu and Paul."[53] (Though Kariya began the season centred by Kurri, the Finnish veteran did not often play on the top line in his lone season with the team.)

Kariya - Gretzky - Selanne....nem nagyon hiszem, hogy lehetne kommentálni.
