Jari Kurri is Gretzky's best known linemate. Paired with No. 99 since he arrived in Edmonton, Jari was joined by fellow Finn Esa Tikkanen to make the "Finnish Sandwich" line. Kurri was later traded to Los Angeles to re-join Gretzky there, but they were rarely on the ice together. In L.A., Gretzky was paired at times with Luc Robitaille, but is best remembered for leading the line of Tomas Sandstrom and Tony Granato. In St. Louis played with Brett Hull, but the pairing was never as prolific as was expected.
