The 2002 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XIX Olympic Winter Games were a Winter Multi-sport event which was celebrated in 2002 He was picked by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (now known as the Anaheim Ducks) 4th overall in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft. The Anaheim Ducks are a professional Ice hockey team based in Anaheim California, USA. The 1993 NHL Entry Draft took place on June 26 1993 at the Colisee de Quebec in Quebec City Quebec.
His best season statistically so far was 1995–96, scoring 50 goals and 58 assists for 108 points.
When Anaheim traded for Teemu Selänne with the Winnipeg Jets, Kariya was placed on a line with Selänne, and Steve Rucchin. Teemu Ilmari Selänne (ˈteːmu ˈilmɑri ˈselænːe (born July 3, 1970) is a Finnish professional Ice hockey right winger who currently The Winnipeg Jets were a professional Hockey team based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Steve Andrew Rucchin (born July 4, 1971 Thunder Bay, Ontario) is a centre who currently plays for the Atlanta Thrashers The combinition of Paul and Teemu became a lethal force against their opponents becoming one of the best duos in the NHL.
Paul missed the 1998 Winter Olympics due to a concussion suffered from an on-ice crosscheck by Gary Suter. The 1998 Winter Olympics, officially known as the XVIII Olympic Winter Games were a Winter Multi-sport event which was celebrated in 1998 Gary Suter was born in Madison, Wisconsin on June 24 1964. He played his Junior hockey for the Dubuque Fighting Saints
In 2003, he and the Ducks reached their first Stanley Cup finals. The Stanley Cup (La Coupe Stanley is an Ice hockey club championship Trophy, awarded annually to the National Hockey League (NHL playoffs champion Kariya was third on the team in playoff scoring (behind Adam Oates and Petr Sykora), scoring six goals and adding six assists. Adam Oates (born August 27 1962 in Weston, Ontario) is a retired professional Ice hockey and lacrosse player Petr Sýkora (pɪitɝ/ɹ̩ sɪkɔɹɑ born November 19, 1976 in Pilsen, Czechoslovakia) is a professional Ice hockey player However he will best be remembered for a dramatic moment.

He went to the locker room, but returned and 11 minutes later scored a goal to give the Ducks a 4–1 lead and that goal turned out to be the game winning goal. Anaheim would win the game 5–2, but lose the series in 7 games. Many felt Kariya's equipment changes following his first concussion may have saved him from being rendered unconscious from the Stevens hit. [2]
At a team rally following the Ducks' Game 7 loss to the Devils, Kariya promised to bring the Cup to Anaheim in 2004. But shortly after, Kariya broke the hearts of Anaheim fans everywhere. A verbal agreement with, then GM, Bryan Murray was broken by Kariya after his $10 Million a year contract was not qualified. It was Murray's intention (which is what Kariya had verbally agreed to do) to re-sign Kariya at a lower amount (believed to be in the $6–7 Mil range) and use the extra money to find the final piece to the cup puzzle via Free Agency. Instead, Kariya took an $8. 5 million paycut, ensuring himself unrestricted free agency at season's end, when he and former Ducks teammate Teemu Selänne signed with the Colorado Avalanche on July 3, 2003 where he believed he had a better chance at winning the cup.
