Mark Messier (1990-1991, 1992-1996) - Messier took over the captaincy from Gretzky and led the Oilers to their fifth Stanley Cup championship in 1990. He would later return to Edmonton and serve as captain again from 1992-1996.
Doug Weight (1999-2001) - Weight served as the Oilers captain during a transitional period for the team. He helped lead them to the Stanley Cup Final in 2006 but did not win a championship.
Ethan Moreau (2007-2010) - Moreau was named captain during a rebuilding period for the Oilers. He was known for his physical style of play and leadership in the locker room.
Connor McDavid (2016-present) - McDavid was named the youngest captain in NHL history at age 19. He has quickly established himself as one of the game's elite players and is seen as the future of the Oilers franchise.
