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. -

I NTRODUCTION Final Report: March 2018 3 3 I NTRODUCTION Saskatoon is a growing community and is currently the 17th largest metropolitan centre in Canada with a population of over 250,000. Between 2006 and 2014, Saskatoon experienced a prolonged economic boom, with rapid growth driven by residents returning from out - of - province for unprecedented job opportunities created by a booming resource economy. Saskatchewan is rich in natural resources with uranium, oil, potash and farming representing the foundation of the region’s economy. Although the economy has slowed since 2014, the City of Saskatoon (the “City”) is planning ahead to ensure the right decisions are made now to prepare for a future population of 500,000. TCU Place and SaskTel Centre are City - owned public assembly facilities.
