Oilers retired Messier's jersey.

The Edmonton Oilers fans present for the official ceremony made the Rexall Place tremble during the jersey retiring of Mark Messier yesterday. Messier was very emotional during the ceremony and broke in tears.

Messier won the Stanley Cup a total of 6 times and played with many hockey great superstars such as Wayne Gretzky, Paul Coffey, Jari Kurri and Grant Fuhr only to name a few, during his long succesful career. A portion of an Edmonton road was also named after him earlier this week. His legacy will live on for many many years in Edmonton.
