to any and all Canadian hockey fans on here, didn't CBC close this telecast with Gretzky highlights played to "Ahead by a Century" by The Tragically Hip? Been looking for this footage forever......
@lhofho i agree, n i suspect one of them is juiced, look at ovechkin's number this yr compaired to 2 to 3 yrs ago. like jose bautista but stats going down instead of up.
@slapshot68 never really thought about that, but its a great point to bring up. mainly because you dont really hear of steroid use in hockey. something to keep in the back of your mind.
Er war einfach nur großartig!!! Der beste jemals spielende Eishockeyspieler aller Zeiten, seine Rekorde sind für die Ewigkeit!!! Die Legende schlechthin!!!
the greatest player in hockey history: wayne gretzky retires forever and no one will ever wear 99 on their jersey. too bad he never played for montreal canadiens
an absolute rockstar

This KILLED me...I kept it together pretty good until I saw Wayne tearing up, then I started to cry a little, too.
Wayne Gretzky, the best EVER! I loved Mario and Bobby Orr, too, among other greats, legends, but Gretz tops them all & always will.
