<p><em>Oilersnation is reviving the <a href="https://oilersnation.com/news/introducing-oilersnation-top-100-edmonton-oilers-all-time">Top 100 Edmonton Oilers of All Time list</a>, a project originally created by the <a href="https://oilersnation.com/news/rest-in-peace-robin-brownlee">late Robin Brownlee</a> in 2015. Jarret Stoll comes in at No. 84 on our updated 2025 list. He was ranked <a href="https://oilersnation.com/news/top-100-oilers-jarret-stoll-69">No.69 on Brownlee’s original list</a>.</em></p>
<p>Jarret Stoll was exactly the type of player the Edmonton Oilers should&#8217;ve kept around in the post-2006 Cup Run years. Instead, he, a pending RFA, and another solid, younger defenceman in Matt Greene, would get shipped off to Los Angeles for Lubomir Visnovsky.</p>

<h2>Notable</h2>
<p>Stoll became an Oiler thanks to the Calgary Flames and Toronto Maple Leafs bungling a trade. The centre was selected by Calgary 46th overall in 2000, but never agreed to a contract with them, setting the stage for a trade east ahead of a June 1st, 2002 deadline. The Leafs bungled the sending of a fax, nullifying the trade and allowing Stoll to re-enter that year&#8217;s draft.</p>
<p>Edmonton would select him 36th overall and he would arrive in Edmonton full-time in 2003. He put up big numbers in his second year scoring 22 goals and 68 points in 82 games, but he was more well-known as for his strong two-way play and penalty kill ability.</p>
<p>He gained experience in the 2006-06 cup run, turning into a 35+ point player in Edmonton, but never reached the same offensive heights.</p>

<h2>The Story</h2>
<p>In Los Angeles he would settle into a middle-six role well, put up between 41 and 47 points in each of his first three years there, playing less minutes as the years went on. His final season in the NHL, 2015-16, saw him split time between the New York Rangers and Minnesota Wild.</p>
