Gretzky getting traded to the kings was the best thing to happen to the NHL. We wouldn't have alot of the teams we do now without his popularity boosting the game.

That last line about his assist totals leaves out a major detail - not only did he have more assists (and goals) than anyone, he had more assists than anyone else had points.

I didn't even follow hockey , but I knew who Wayne Gretzky was, that's how big he was 💪

@brandocalrissian3294 11 ай бұрын

Exactly. He was bigger than the game, and the NHL wouldn't be anywhere near as successful as it is today without him.

The Indianapolis Racers "Hey we need a guy with name recognition to get people to go to games." "What about the Gretzky kid?" "Yeah that's a good idea. He's never going to be a great player but he'll get people in the stands." 😂😂😂

Just for the record, “MORE ASSISTS THAN ANY OTHER PLAYER HAS IN TOTAL POINTS” !

Some hall of famer once said, on the rink, Wayne will carve your heart out and show it to you.

Hockey wouldn’t be as big as it is in the US if it weren’t for Gretzky coming to LA!

The Kings were the first LA team to sell-out a whole season. The Lakers, Dodgers, or Rams/Raiders had never sold out an entire season.

Awesome. And to think Wayne got his famous 99 in my hometown of sault ste marie ontario.

I love the line from Esposito... Gretzky knew what you were gonna do, before you knew what you were gonna do. That sums it all up, an entire career in one sentence.

The Gretzky family lives in Paris Ontario. I never got to meet Wayne Gretzky but met Ted Gretzky who was my social worker. I got free tickets to the old timers game from Inner city angels. Only boys got to play hockey! I am only welcome to skate on outside rinks since the coronation virus. The Loblaws at the old maple leaf gardens has been closed to me and there is an armed cop at the entrance but the arena area has been open. All they sell is vending machine food/ drinks!

Wayne Gretzky looks a lot like my old neighbor Laura who once lived on Grenadier Rd!

The Hockey Hall of Fame is closed to many NHL hockey players. They can't go see their memorabilia on display as the security guards at Brookfield don't want them inside. Only the gift shop is open as the entrance from the street to the hockey Hall of Fame has been closed

GRETZKY never stood out as a fast skater; his shot was below average, (going by speed); he wasn't great at body checking and he wasn't strong. Nevertheless, he had another gear that nobody else had: THE HUNGRY TO WIN GEAR.

Mcdavid is the best hockey player today... he is #1 for talent... winning a cup he needs to become a all time great. I believe the best like mcjesus is today is the best hockey player the world as ever seen... didnt win cup yet maybe wont... but he is the best hockey forward player of all time... he is a pavel bure gretsky almost lemieux style... he can do it all.
