  • Wayne Gretzky
    SPORTING LEGENDS: WAYNE GRETZKY SPORT: ICE HOCKEY COMPETITIVE ERA: 1978 - 1999 Wayne Douglas Gretzky, OC (born January 26, 1961) is a former professional ice hockey player and current head coach and part owner of the Phoenix Coyotes. Born in Brantford, Ontario, Canada, he is known as The Great One, and considered by many to be the greatest player of all time. Taught by his father Walter, Gretzky was seen as a classic prodigy. At age 6 he was skating with 10-year-olds. At 10 he scored 378 goals and 120 assists in 85 games, and the first story on him was published in the Toronto Telegram. At 14, playing against 20- year-olds, he left Brantford to further his career. He also signed with his first agent. He played one year in the Ontario Hockey League, at the age of 16, with the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. There he began wearing the number 99 on his jersey. He had wanted 9 - for his hero Gordie Howe - but it was already being worn by another teammate. At Coach Muzz MacPherson's suggestion Gretzky settled on 99. The next year (1978-79) he signed with the Indianapolis Racers of the World Hockey Association (WHA) as an underaged player. The NHL did not allow the signing of players under the age of 18 (nor does now), but the WHA had no rules regarding such signings. Nelson Skalbania, the owner of Indianapolis Racers, signed the 17 year old future superstar, Wayne Gretzky to, at that time, a whopping personal contract worth between $1.125 and 1.75 million US over 4 to 7 years.

    OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF THE KOOTENAY ICE Volume 18, Issue 30 #21 Matt Alfaro #22 Zak Zborosky #4 Cale Fleury 365 MESSAGES Greetings from the WHL Last year, during the Western Hockey League’s 50th season, we were privileged to reflect on our rich history and honour the many distinguished builders and alumni who have helped to make the WHL the finest junior hockey league in the world today. As we open the 2016-17 WHL season, the same ideals that fostered the growth our great League still serve as its foundation – a commitment to providing our players with a world class experience from both a hockey and education standpoint. The WHL and our 22 member Clubs take great pride in providing our players with the best possible environment in which to succeed both on and off the ice. On the ice, our high calibre of coaching and arena facilities continue to offer an ideal setting to grow and develop as a player. Off the ice, the WHL Scholarship remains the most comprehensive hockey scholarship in North America with a WHL record of over 350 graduates utilizing their WHL Scholarship at post-secondary institutions across the continent last year alone, representing an investment of over $2 million by WHL Club ownership. The WHL Scholarship is one of many commitments WHL Club ownership makes to ensure the success of our players. The WHL Players First support services program expanded last year with the addition of a League-wide WHL Security Network and Police Impact Program which engages local police officers in a liaison capacity with all of our teams to ensure our players are in a safe and respectful environment at all times.

  • Wayne Gretzky from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Wayne Gretzky From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wayne Douglas Gretzky , OC (/ ˈɡrɛtski/; born January 26, 1961) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player and former head coach. He played 20 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for four teams from 1979 to 1999. Wayne Gretzky Nicknamed "The Great One" , he has been called "the greatest hockey player ever" [1] by many sportswriters, players, and Hockey Hall of Fame, 1999 the NHL itself. He is the leading point-scorer in NHL history, with more assists than any other player has points, and is the only NHL player to total over 200 points in one season – a feat he accomplished four times. In addition, he tallied over 100 points in 16 professional seasons, 14 of them consecutive. At the time of his retirement in 1999, he held 40 regular- season records, 15 playoff records, and six All-Star records. He won the Lady Byng Trophy for sportsmanship and performance five times, [2] and he often spoke out against fighting in hockey. [1][3] Born and raised in Brantford, Ontario, Gretzky honed his skills at a backyard rink and regularly played minor hockey at a level far above his peers. [4] Despite his unimpressive stature, strength and speed, Gretzky's intelligence and reading of the game were unrivaled. He was adept at dodging checks from opposing players, and he could consistently anticipate where the puck was going to be and execute the right move at the right time. Gretzky also became known for setting up behind Wayne Gretzky in 2001 his opponent's net, an area that was nicknamed "Gretzky's office".

  • Los Angeles Kings 2019-20 Season Preview
    Los Angeles Kings 2019-20 Season Preview LOS ANGELES KINGS: TEAM LOOK-AHEAD With former rival Todd McLellan now at the helm as Kings head coach, Los Angeles will look to avoid consecutive years without a playoff berth; the Kings have not missed back-to-back appearances since a six-year lapse from 2002-03 to 2008-09. McLellan, who was with San Jose from 2008-09 to 2014-15, is the second head coach to guide both the Kings and Sharks. Darryl Sutter, the only other to do so (SJS: 1997-98—2002-03, LAK: 2011-12—2016-17), led Los Angeles to its Stanley Cup wins in 2012 and 2014. OFFENSIVE OUTLOOK * Kings veterans Anze Kopitar (22 G) and Dustin Brown (22 G) led the team with 22 goals apiece in 2018-19. Los Angeles will look for improvements on offense after posting their fourth- lowest goal total in an 82-game season (202 GF in 2018-19). * Mario Kempe, who was signed as a free agent with the Kings on July 5, 2019, will be joining his brother, Adrian in the Kings’ line-up for the 2019-20 season. The Kempe’s will be the third set of brothers to play with the franchise, joining Brayden and Luke Schenn as well as Jan and Roman Vopat, who both played with the Kings during the 1996-97 and 1997-98 seasons. * Drew Doughty led the Kings with 24 power-play points in 2018-19 (7-17—24), marking the second time he has done so (also 2015-16).
