Gretzky took fewer games to reach 1000 points than anyone in history. Second place belongs to Gretzky as well, when he scored another 1000 points.
He had the most assists and goals - so he wasn't just a goal scorer, but he was an amazing team player.
Still holds the all-time points record on his assists alone, most insane stat I've ever heard.
With a 100,000 dollar fine for anyone who hit Gummy on the ice!
@@briangall8442 You can't hit what you can't catch. Gretz was playing chess while everyone else was playing checkers.
if you take away all of his goals he is still the all-time points leader 🤯
"they let me sit on the ice".... words out of the mouth of one of the greatest hockey players to play the game. "they let me"... the humility of that is great.
the great one
He's the single most-dominant athlete of any team sport ever, yet talks as if he's your neighborhood mechanic. Such an interesting contrast.

Michael Jordan….
@@C4duke Jordan presented himself well in interviews, mostly because he's actually pretty shy, but his conduct behind closed doors is notoriously cruel and self-centered.
@@C4duke Jordan was definitely dominant but I don't think he has the same "actually nice person" persona that Gretzky does, or at least not to the same level.
@@C4duke Jordan was fantastic, no doubt. But no one dominated a sport like Gretzky. He has so many records, it's incredible.
Wayne continues to be one of the greatest sportsmen of any sport. He's genuinely there for the betterment of the sport and made a lot of his decisions based on that. There's a reason why Edmonton has a street named after him.
and one in Brantford Ontario Canada his hometown
It is Wayne Gretzky Way and it is a Freeway...not just a street. Originally called Capilano Freeway
And now he advertises sports betting to children. Lost all respect for the Wayner.
@@alexstewart9068😂😂😂 That’s such a stupid thing to say.

My cousin played against Wayne Gretzky in a bantam tournament. Gretzky's team won 12-1--and he scored 11 goals.
I guess that's why they called him 'The Great One'
Shocking! Shocking that another player actually managed to score a goal while Gretzky was on the ice.
Gretzky probably got the assist
@@danaisallin3346 Funny. :^) But seriously, Gretz's assists were usually just as amazing as his goals, if not more so! I loved the all-star and Team Canada performances, where he just fed the puck to other amazing players (like Lemieux), and the plays were so exquisitely perfect, they were automatic goals.
My Dad took me to see him in Burlington. The thing I saw was the kids he played against were really good players and he'd still get 10 goals. It was amazing to watch. When he stick handled through the other them it was like the puck was glued to the blade of his stick.

@@jaypritchett6846 oof. that one hits me a little. 😅
All time points leader and if you take away all his goals he’d still be the all time points leader. Dude was amazing.
Imagine his goal total if he hadn't passed so much.
And he's the all time goals leader

@@BuckarooBanzai333 For goals. Not for points. Not even close. Still...what Ovi is doing is pretty phenomenal.
@@doublestrokeroll yeah total points and 50 in 39 are untouchable
That was a fun interview. Thought I knew a lot about Wayne. But I Never knew Bobby Clarke had such an impact on Wayne.
Tidbit - If Wayne never scored a single goal in the NHL he'd still be the NHL's all-time point leader just via assists. And that boggles the mind.
Wayne, always a class act, charitable and one of the humblest men anyone will ever see.
Thanks Wayne for all the memories, motivation and inspiration to me and an entire generation.
LONG LIVE THE GREAT ONE 99!
There's an interview where he says one of his coaches, after watching him practice for a bit, told him to go home and watch Bobby Clarke and really study what he did. Clearly, a smart guy. Bobby also played down low because he wasn't the biggest guy and he suffered from diabetes but he found the areas where he could control the game. Wayne took that and improved it and became the most dominant hockey player ever.
What a guy he is. A true gem. Nice, soft spoken and intelligent.
I love how even if Gretzky had never scored a single goal, he would still statistically be the greatest in history
Uhhhhhhh…….
@@007Hutchings Gretzky has more assists than any other player has goals + assists combined.
Yeah. He had more assists than Howe had goals AND assists.
@@cherkovision You people are using very basic statistics. It is pretty obvious that if he never scored a goal only being an assist man would take you out of the running for GOAT. It is just what goobers parrot for likes. It is a stupid talking point. If he never scored a goal then he would be the worst goal scorer of all time. Use very basic logic.
@@Onthebrink5 That's why he said "statistically". The point that Gretzky has more assists than anyone else has points is just to emphasize the margin of greatness that he has.
Out of all the superstars in sports Gretzky seems like the most down to earth and the guy you could walk up to and say hi.
Once when I was a kid, maybe 10 or 11, Wayne Gretzky was the keynote speaker at this banquet in Toronto, around 3 hours away from where I lived. We weren't well off, living from paycheck to paycheck type family, but my uncle found us tickets. My cousin and I really hoped to get the Great One's autograph, so we brought a few magazines etc with Gretzky on the cover. Not only did he refuse, but he asked security to shoo us away. Im sure that from his point of view we were being pesky kids or we just came at a bad moment, but ever since then, I've always felt let down by Wayne Gretzky. I guess that it's like the old saying goes, never meet your celebrity idols
you can! Walked past him in Toronto a few years ago said OMG you Gretzky! he said yup want a picture?
You can tell Conan prepared for this interview. Unlike the Lenos and Fallons of this world who just shows up to play games. We'll miss you Conan.
Oh did he retire
@@Scorpio7500 from late night. He's doing his podcast now and something coming out on HBO in the near future
Gretzky was adored by the SNL people.....not because of his sport but due to how he acted around them. Conan remembers. Everyone who worked there remembers.
Leno never played games with guests. Get educated.
Had the privilege of watching him in Edmonton. Saw him raise a cup in his last game as an Oiler and his first game back playing for LA. The game back was the loudest I ever heard a crowd, my hands are still sore from clapping. He is a hockey god to me and deserves a constellation. I always said my favorite player was Messier, as Gretzky was just in his own league. I was so lucky to live so close to a team that was so talented and honestly, hockey has never been the same for me. I loved it when they just flew down the ice back and forth and that doesn't happen the same way very often now, which may be why his record will be difficult to beat.

I was a huge NY Ranger fan growing up, but you could not help but love the Oilers. I remember the first thing in the morning wanting to grab the newspaper to see the Oilers Box Score to see how many points Gretzky had. I mean, it was ridiculous. He was so much greater than the next best player. No NHL player will EVER break his records of fastest to 50 goals, or total points. There are many other records he owns...but those two are just insane records that will be impossible to break. The NHL would have to increase their season to be as long as a baseball season for players to get close. Gretzky was probably greater to the sport of hockey than any other athlete was to their respective sport. The "Greatest" is a well deserved title. It was awesome watching the Oilers beat up my NY Rangers. You had to appreciate the skill they displayed on the ice. Gretzky, Messier, Kurri, Anderson, Coffey...etal.
50 goals in 38 games is a record that will never be beaten.
love when the greats give it up to the guys who were the greats to them. love the respect in hockey
Gretzky is, and always will be, The Great One. I remember seeing him, in his prime, as an Edmonton Oilers fan. He was a hero, and a hockey god.
*I’m a Kings fan, and I agree!* 😉
Second hero to me, being a Kings fan, is *Dustin Brown!* ❤️ He was the _first Captain_ to lead us to the Cup! 😁
I miss Brownie… 😢
I also remember seeing him in his prime as a Winnipeg Jets fan ARGGGGGGGGG!!!!
Saw him in 1981 in Vancouver. It really was like seeing a god. He even seemed to have an aura.
And Messier was on his team. My earliest memories of the oilers and of my life were this one guy (gretz) zipped around and scored all the goals and this other guy (mess) went around beating everyone up.
Wayne Gretzky couldn’t be SNEEZED at without a penalty being called
As a Bruins fan, I remember that it was really hard to watch guys try to hit Gretzky, and hated it for a whole decade. He is the greatest.

@@briangall8442 - lol, ask Dennis Potvin or Neel Sheehy or Joel Otto if they tried not to hit Gretzky in the playoffs (while they were trying desperately to win a Stanley Cup) and they’ll all laugh at the question.
@@briangall8442 I saw a video where they talked about Gretzky and how hard it was to land a hit on him because of his hockey sense. There was no fine. Stop the cap! Plus, he had Semenko. Most stars had an enforcer to prevent ugly hits on them... before the crap instigator rules.
So many of these hockey greats are awesome, gracious, and down to earth people. Gretz, Orr, Howe, Hull, Beliveau. Salt of the earth folks.
I've heard from a camera man who has been to all top pro events, (NBA, NFL, MLB, etc.) and he said he the hockey players were by far the best people to deal with.
@@hammothw4814 Interesting to hear! There are definitely a few jerks in the NHL, but it seems like most of them are pretty good folks. I was thinking more about that upper elite of hockey 'gods', though.
@@pbasswil yeah, something about the ice, that keeps us cool and humble.
🇨🇦I hear you.
@@dinosaursr Oh jeez, your flag just reminded me: Those guys are all Canadian! :^). [I'm sure there are hockey players that are awesome human beings from all nations... but the bunch I mentioned are off the charts. :^)]
The all time most dangerous offensive player to ever hit the ice.
There was a time early in his career where a big defenseman was lining him up and and was just going to plow him over. Wayne had the puck and purposefully passed the defender the puck and it completely confused him and stopped him in his tracks because he wasn't expecting it. The next thing Wayne did was steal the puck back and skate around him, lol.
A total legend. And a retired gentleman full of well spoken words..
Love that the kids warned him before hitting him toward the end. The respect they show the elders in hockey has always been great to see. Hope this guy is around for many more years to be an ambassador for the most exciting sport out there.
I was just trying to explain how good Wayne Gretzky was; "50 goals in 38 games is a lot of goals" ya, exactly.
It was actually 50 in 39, but it's still impressive. He managed to reach that total the day before New Year's Eve 1981. The fact that he finished that season with 92 is just insane.
@@bluebear1985 Wayne meant that to beat his record a new player would have to score 50 in 38. Give it another listen.
Being from Southern Ontario myself, Wayne Gretzky is a legend, he's from this neck of the woods in Brantford, ON, just down the 403 from Hamilton and Toronto, he may have never played for the Maple Leafs, but he's a proper Southern Ontarian

Just so people understand how great Gretzky was,in his career he had 2857points.
The 2nd player right after him had 1921 points. (Gretzky played 300 fewer games than him)
Gretzky has had more assists than anyone ever had points.

Roy and Brodeur?
The goalies weren't garbage. They did have smaller pads and less protection, but they were exceptional, .....Gretzky was simply ahead of his time,... and that much better than everyone else!
Goalies were smaller and no butterfly technique. He was amazing but those facts made him seem that much better than other greats
Take away every goal he scored and he’s still the all time points leader. Insane.
Wayne Gretzky was known to people who didn't watch hockey , I didn't watch hockey at all, but I knew who Wayne Gretzky was, what sport he played and why he was The Greatest
If people who don't know anything about hockey have heard of Wayne Gretzky.
I´ve heard "heads up" almost every game, since they now mic the rink.
All the great hockey guys are just like this, humble, normal and nice. The lesser hockey players tend to be the jerks.
*Totally agree!!!* They need to take a lesson!!! 😒
He’s too modest. He avoided getting hit because, while not fast, he was quick and elusive. Grew up watching him as a child, but now so much fun watching video clips of him now that I understand the game better and see what people meant by his “vision”.
He used the expression "Hockey sense." He had great peripheral vision. I saw a video of him as a child; and credits coaching from age 14. Amazing.
While he was an Oiler and King, he had McSorley watching is back too. There was an understanding in the 80s and early 90s that if you went after a star player, there was a guy on the ice whose job it was to make sure you knew the consequences of your actions. Marty also had his own "hockey sense" from playing with the Great One where he would come to the net to pick up Wayne's beautiful assist. The 80s Oilers were truly a marvel of the time.
He was actually quite fast, not the fastest, but quite fast... but obviously his "hockey sense" made him great.

My favourite player of all time. I grew up in a small town in North Western Ontario and our tv cable provider in 1979 installed a giant satellite dish that got, if I remember the name correctly, the CANCOM signal that gave us the networks BCTV (Vancouver), ITV (Edmonton) CHCH (Hamilton) and a couple of channels with French programming. So, I’m at school and all my buddies are talking about watching ITV the previous night and in particular watching the Edmonton Oilers game…and they’re all talking about this guy named “Gretzky” that was unbelievable!!! I couldn’t wait for the next ITV broadcast of the Oilers (they aired all home and away games) and when it did happen…FAN FOR LIFE!!! I remember watching him score 39 in 50 but was thinking, “What the hell are the Flyers doing??? They are about to become the team that gave Gretz his 50th!!!! Here it comes…!!!”.
Side note. Love how Gretzky made the reference to somehow having to get 50 in 38…but he’ll be there to be the first to shake his hand if it happens!!!
Great interview. Love how humble Gretz answered everything.
This is a really great interview, great insight into his game.
LEGEND! This man is the reason I started skating as a kid. I fell in LOVE with Hockey because of this man!
Wayne’s father was the most down to earth man.Regular Bell Telephone worker.Loved by everyone.
“Look out Wayne here I come” in Conan’s Old Timey Baseball voice. 😆
A Class Act beyond comparison in the sports entertainment business, a typical Canadian boy of his era all grown up.
What a great person to represent hockey & Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for all the memories 99 he truly IS the Great One 👏🏼
And that ladies and gentlemen is why he is the great one ❤
I’m pretty sure that 92 goal season is untouchable lol
unlikely for sure but I think the single season 200 + point seasons will be much harder than that.
Such a humble gentleman and so wise.
AS a 14-year-old, I played against Bobby Clarke in a scrimmage while he was at his peak in the NHL. Clarke was known as a dirty player. He and I became friends. He was kind of like my older brother. Then, we played against each other and we were no longer friends. In the corners he treated me, a 14-year-old, like I was a fellow NHL player and it was the Stanley Cup finals. He hacked me, he speared me, I remember the blade of his stack flying inches past my face. Then, after the game we were back to being friends and he took me for a ride in his Mopar GTX to go and get us a couple popsicles. Bobby left it all on the ice, but when the game was over, he was just a very nice, soft-spoken, shy guy. Clarke taught me about hard work and desire to win. He let nothing stand in his way.

Yeah sorry that sounds...psychotic.
@@aluisious That was perhaps the most important lesson anyone ever taught me.
Bobby Clarke had to have his arms tied down during flights because if he fell asleep, he’d dream of fighting, and in his confusion would actually swing at whoever was sitting next to him.
True story.
@@wilhelmvg9978 I've heard Bobby had some minor issues related to his diabetes I think, but I don't believe I've heard anything like that. Bobby and mine's big brother-little brother relationship drifted apart once I grew older and we were no longer involved in what was kind of a teacher-student relationship. Full disclosure: We have not stayed in touch abd I think it's possible he may not even remember me, given the tumult and excitement of his career around that time with the Summit Series and the Flyers winning the cup a couple tines.
I will add thought that Bobby's off-ice persona was nothing like his on-ice persona. Bobby was and is a very quiet and kind man and I am privileged for once being able to call him my friend.
Wow I never knew Bobby Clark was his biggest influence being a Flyers fan
I read somewhere that Bobby Clark once said to a referee, "Hurry up and drop the puck. They didn't come here to see you. They came here to see us."
I only met Wayne a handful of times, but man did I ever know his dad.. (Brantford Resident)
Great interview
I think hockey players are the most nice out of all sports
He seems like the humblest, nicest guy. What a class act.
The numbers are mind-boggling!
Those were the days when i was a kid. Saturday night. Homemade pizza. Family around the tv. Remember? Gretzky, Bossy, Dion, Lafleur, Esposito, Brodeur. Thanks for the nostalgia trip Conan.
Are we talking Kraft pizza kit in the orange box?
Greatest of all time in all team sports.
Gretz was the reason I'm a hockey fan and an LA Kings fan. His influence on the sport and in the US will never be touched.
Gretzky was so good that he even set a record after he had ended his career 👑
It goes without saying, Wayne is a national treasure!
Interesting viewpoint at the end there from GOAT. Could you imagine being on his team scoring 1-2 goals or more every. Single. Night. Unreal
Pure class!
I hung out with Wayne a few times. He is a super nice, down to earth dude. So was his dad Walt.
Class act.
holy crap Wayne is such a good story teller
Class act😊, the Great One!
He did all that with such humility. He is great at telling little stories from his amazing career.
Class act!
Imagine if there was a last dance documentary for Gretzky last yr in Edmonton
The man is pure class... easily on my Mount Rushmore of 20th century athletes... with Ali Pele and Jordan ...
Soccer and hockey sports that do not involve any jumping. Even the worst NBA player is more athletic than Pele and Ali. I don't think you know what the word means. Even an MMA fighter would have taken out Ali in fighting. Athleticism is the whole not the specific.
@@Onthebrink5 no jumping in soccer? Ever seen Cristiano Ronaldo score a header? Ever see Iker Casillas make a diving save? I'd like to see NBA players last 90 minutes on a 120-yard field or 20 minutes of ice time in a Stanley Cup playoff game. No MMA fighter would take out Ali in a regulation boxing match.
@@jsquared1013 WTF are you babbling about? Basketball players have to jump every single time that they shoot. On rebounds. On defending shots. On helping out on defense. Why are the dumbest people the ones that feel the need to chirp? Soccer players almost never need to jump which is why Basketball players vertical is very important. You are a clown.
Not the fastest player, not the biggest player, but the smartest player ever.
It’s a hard thing to coach, Anticipation. He could read plays like no one else.
Bruce Hood, an NHL referee said, "Gretzky seemed to know what other players were going to do before they even knew themselves."
By far the best and most dominant player in any major sports league.
It’s not like hockey players were that smart. It took awhile for them to catch onto anything.
Stick to talking about things you know. 👍
@@ThisHandleFeatureIsStupid I think he watched the movie Slapshot and thought it was a documentary
Wayne learned his style from bobby clarke??!??! First time I’ve heard this. I always wondered where Wayne got his violent streak from!
Yes, Every game Wayne gave the back of the opposing goalies net a savage beating. 😊
Living legend.
Hockey is the only sport where there is no debate over who is the greatest. My son's first hockey game he (and I) got to see Gretzky score a goal. That was really special.
Concur that statistically, Wayne is far and away the best. But you could make a case for Messier. Mess won the Cup twice without Gretz, and is third all-time in points (he was second when he retired, and Jägr passed him later). Mark played a much more physical game, and you didn’t want to get on his bad side
There is _some_ debate about it, but Gretzky's longevity, statistical dominance (combination of skillset, vision/strategy, and the right era for his type of play), and impact on the game off the ice combines to make him the Greatest legend of the game, even to those of us who think there were better players.
The Great One💯
2:06: He meant to say; "made this team of 10 year olds at 5 years old"
I love how much this guy still loves the greatest game on earth.
Simply the best.................

In today's game, no red line, no clutching, Composite stick, and Kurri feeding him all day long, guy would have had 3000 goals today
Todays goalies aren't standing anymore. Gretzky was one of the players who could not adjust his goal scoring to the new butterfly style. He failed to keep scoring many goals and had to switch pretty much to assisting only in his later years.
We love you Gretzky!!
Love 99!

I mean, it helps to have enforcers on your team. Everyone in the league knew that if you messed with Gretzky, you would certainly be getting crunched on the boards by Oilers enforcers for the rest of the game, if not the season. There were consequences to threatening the golden goose. :)
"I'm not that great" casually mentions how he played with 10 year olds as a 5 year old.

He got hit but he always had a Dave Semenko type on his team. I love how he gave props to Bobby Clarke. Everybody talks about his goals but he was the greatest setup guy to ever lace up.
