    Whenever there's an argument about who the greatest player ever is, one thing they have in common is they are ALL compared to Gretzky. That's how you know he's the best, and always will be. The greatest ever, #99. It was a dream come true watching you and Messier play in a Rangers uniform together. Thank you, Wayne.

    I grew up in Edmonton and was lucky enough to see Wayne play there as a kid. He was a true gentleman on and off the ice.

    My favorite hockey player ever, nobody can top Gretz in my book...and an even better person than a hockey player. No better ambassador in the history of hockey for the sport. THE GREATEST

      Yeah I saw him coach, nothing to do with his coaching record...talking about him as a player and human being.

    I was born in '88 and because of that, I caught him in the twilight of his career. I thought that he was overrated because there were other players that were playing at a higher level than him when I started watching hockey as a kid. It was not until later that I realized what he did for Edmonton and LA and what he did for the game that he deserved all the accolades and the recognition especially in his final game. Great one: Wayne Gretzky!

    Honestly, this is what I think about Gretzky. In today’s NHL, he definitely wouldn’t get 92 goals or 215 points in a season, but if he played today, he would be averaging 100 points and leading the league in scoring every single year. He is the greatest of all time because no player dominated their era anywhere close to the level that he did.

    People don't realize that the 2 seasons prior to gretzky retiring he finiashed with 97 and 90 pts and this is when the league was bogged down by the trapping systems that most teams employed. With a worn out body in his late 30's thats saying something.

    @MrAllen-fv9cj 4 года назад +1

    Was there any reason in particular why the Rangers wore dark blue? Back in 99 home was still wearing white. I realize it was Gretzky's last game but it's still a bit odd since they weren't 3rd jerseys.

      Home team choice but it’s submitted prior to the season starting or so I believe.

      Gretz probably wanted to wear blue for his last game. The rangers and penguins weren’t gonna tell him no so

    That whole sequence leading up to the winning goal was caused by a Rangers neutral zone turnover What else was new in those days.
