He became famous for playing for the Anaheim Mighty Ducks , of which he was a captain. Their connection with the Finnish Teemu Selyanne scored more than 200 points per season, and the link Kariya - Ruchchin - Selyanne was one of the strongest in the NHL in the 1990s. After the exchange of Selanne in the “ San Jose Sharks ”, Caria’s performance dropped, and the hockey player’s further game was affected by numerous injuries, in particular, concussions.
