About Me

I was born January 26, 1961 in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. I was the first child born to parents, Wayne and Phyllis Gretzky. I loved hockey growing up. When I was 2 years old my dad built me a hockey rink in my backyard. I practiced there every day. My first time playing on an organized team was when I was 6 years old. All of my teammates were ten years old. I contuined to play with them and when I was eight, I scored 104 goals in 40 games. At age 9, I had 196 goals and 316 points in 76 games. The next year, I scored 378 goals in 82 games. My professional career began as a member of the minor league Indianapolis Racers. My first season was in 1979-80 as a member of the Edmonton Oilers of the National Hockey League. I played 79 games with them scoring 51 goals and getting 86 assists for a total of 137 points. My best season was in 1985-86 when I played in 80 games getting 52 goals, and 163 assists for a total of 215 points. My highest goal scoring total was in 1981-82 when I scored 92 goals in 80 games. When I retired, I had won four Stanley Cups, all with Edmonton. I held a total of 61 NHL records. I finished with 894 goals, 1963 points, and 2857 points in 1487 career games. I played in 208 playoff games netting 122 goals and 260 assists for a total of 382 points. body{ scrollbar-face-color:rgb(12,12,196); scrollbar-base-color:rgb(12,12,196); scrollbar-3dlight-color:rgb(255,255,255); scrollbar-shadow-color:rgb(255,255,255); scrollbar-darkshadow-color:rgb(255,255,255); scrollbar-highlight-color:rgb(255,255,255); scrollbar-track-color:rgb(0,0,0); scrollbar-arrow-color:rgb(76,76,223);

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Throught my playing career I have met many people. I have played with many people that were enjoyments to be around. Mark Messier was one of my best friends while I was playing hockey. When I was little, the one player I wanted to meet was the Detroit Red Wings foward Gordie Howe. Gordie Howe was the greatest hockey player ever. I remember very vividly the day I met him. It was one of the happiest days of my life.
