His parents were terrific. I took my son to his house in Brantford once and sat in my car. My son knocked on the door and Walter welcomed him in immediately. 45 minutes later my son finally comes back to the car. They had given him milk and cookies with autographed pics of Wayne and a tour of all the trophies and awards Wayne had won. How many would do that for a stranger knocking on your door.

Give credit to you for giving your son a memory of a life time, as you called wayne’s parents terrific im sure he has or will say “my dad was terrific” you sitting in the car waiting shows you wanted him to have that moment by himself im sure you wanted to go in there too lol you a good man sir.

You and all Canadians have so much to be proud of, so many Giants who have contributed to so many arts, sciences, sports….everything! I especially love the great Canadian songwriters and musicians, and also Glenn Gould! He’s the only pianist I’ll listen to who recorded the keyboard works of Bach! I grew up across the bay from Duluth, MN, just a few hours south of your border, so Canada has always been on my radar in the best way possible. Also, I learned over the years that two of my ancestors fought for the British in the Revolutionary War and had to escape over the border to Canada (today’s New Brunswick), one in a box hidden in a wagon full of goods because he had a price on his head. They stayed with groups of Loyalists and eventually migrated westward, eventually moving south into Lower Michigan about 100 years later. So that’s another reason for me to love Canada!

We were on all sides too and got free land to work the land in 2 yrs. My grandpa had flat feet so he was rejected from the military and saved my dad's family tree.

Gretz was a class act on and off the ice. He idolized Gordie Howe and Bobby Orr. His trade to Los Angeles in the summer of ‘88 brought the sport to America. He’s the greatest ambassador of the game of hockey. Ever. All the records, all the championships: An inspiration to kids and fans around the world.

I lived in Brantford and just one street north of the Gretzkys. I worked at the zehrs store and they would shop there. You’d never know their son was the greatest scorer ever. So down to earth. After Mrs Gretzky passed my mom would run into Walter at various local church garage sales. He was always trying to find a decent dishcloths to use and would ask my Mom what she thought. She said he was such a nice and friendly guy and he d talk to everyone Here is even a better story. I came by to visit my dad and mom. My dad was Always bored so we d go to the Brantford Mall and all these old retired guys would hang and talk. I see Mr Gretzky walking towards us and my dad jumps up and says Walt. I want you to meet my son. He comes over and we chat for a few minutes. All he asked was questions about me and my wife and kids etc. then I said take care Mr Gretzky. My dad had a puzzled look and asked how do you know him??? I said Dad…. That’s Walter Gretzky. He still didn’t click it. So I said that is Wayne Gretzkys sad. Everyone knows him. My dad’s was dumbfounded. He said I’ve been talking to that guy for a year. He never once said anything about that. That shows you how humble he was.

He does NOT need the money so whydid he pounce with bothfeet and NO hesitation....It just cheapens his reputation....I can sort of see it with thr young guns (Mathews,McDavid, etc.....) but GRETZ has made his money --- and he MUST have thought of how thus would make his reputation fall and be sullied by his actions. Or is it"Its a business -- who gives a hoot , just go fer' the cash grab", who cares about my reputation as long as I earn another couple of million......!!

We were a powerhouse (won the tournament) and put it on his sons team from Lakewood California pretty good but his son was not only a bright spot on the team he was a true sportsman and shook the hand of every player that did the home run trot by his shortstop position. Both great athletes and better sportsman. Class acts for sure!

What people who didn't watch him play at the time don't realize is how he controlled the game. Most people when they think of the greatest players in a given sport think of someone with blazing speed so they can run around defenders, amazing athleticism so they can juke a defende out of their shoes or jump over them, or massive strength so that they can overpower their opponents. Gretzky was the exact opposite...he would force defenders to play at his speed. He made the game slow down. It wasn't about speed but rather about change of pace, anticipation, and seeing open space where others see chaos. Uneducated people watch his highlights and say "everyone plays so slowly...how good can he be?" But he made everyone slow down with puck control, incredible dexterity, and unbelievable vision and skill. He was a grandmaster chess player playing against us novices. It was incredible to watch him do his thing and I don't think just watching his highlights does him any justice as to how much he controlled the game. As a Canucks fan I freaking HATED him!! He destroyed my team! haha!!

Game 4 should have been in Boston but the lights went out in the Gaaaahdens. 3). Breaking Howe’s point record. It was a remarkable time to be a hockey fan in Edmonton. His records are amazing but 4 Cups in 5 years is his greatest achievement.

It's so true about them and the cup. Remember going to a friends house for a BBQ and walk out and the cup was sitting on the picnic table brought by Mark. Had wayne sign a puck for me once and like a fool played road hockey with it all summer. Lol no signature left. They were all such great down to earth guys.

His influence on the game gave way to teams in places that never had Hockey. North Carolina, Florida, Phoenix. Even Las Vegas. Think that at least 3 of those teams have even won a Stanley Cup,. Tampa Bay Lightning, Carolina Hurricanes and The Golden Knights ( i think)

Most hockey players, as my Dad said many years ago, would play the game for free. That's a stretch, I know. But a lot of hockey players, no matter what level, will lace up the skates and play in a league. Not many contact sports will say that. Side note. 1 Orr. 2 Howe. 3 Gretzky. 4 Messier. 5 Roy. Ex goalie here.

1 Gretzky. 2 Orr. 3 Howe. 4 Lemieux. 5 Hall (Glenn). It's difficult to rank hockey players, in different eras. I generally agree with your post, though.

Hello! 1)Gordie Howe by a mile. Great team player, great shooter, great passer, always played defence and could beat the shit out of you. 2) tie with Gretzky and Orr. Both great on offense and both transcended the game to a new level. Everybody else is up for long debates and opinions.

I thought I knew every Gretzky trivia fact there was to know. I didn’t know about him wearing #24. I bet that jersey would command a million plus dollars.

That Messier hit... He told him he was there... than guided him rather gently into the boards by hockey standards...Still delivered a good check. You know, ya gotta respect Mark Messier, what a guy. That was beautiful.

I had him as a coach the year before he broke through. Mora hockey school,Sweden.. The intention was that Börje Salming would come, but he did not appear. Obstacles or something. Then Len Lunde (who owned the school) said that this guy will become something. We were so disappointed but damn he was quick and skilled. I got his autograph with me and him in the same picture, Today it's big, then zzz

@9:47... after the season ends, one can put the equipment away and play ULTIMATE FRISBEE. Having played both for yrs, I dropped my stick when I discovered another 10 minutes of drive time gave me the chance to play indoor @ UNH during 5 below snowfall... NEVER looked back - but ALWAYS thankful for the experience.
