In the '80s, when Gretzky came to the World Championships in the second or third game, you'd see this guy skating circles around the other ones. Unbelievable.

You see a hockey player, you'd never know he's a professional athlete. But you put the skates on him, and he becomes a beast.
When you think of hockey, when you think of Canada, you think of Wayne Gretzky.
My favorite personal hockey moment was probably when Mike Bossy scored fifty goals in fifty games. He was the first one to do it since Rocket Richard. I was young when it happened, but I remember it very distinctly.
When you think of Canada, you think of hockey and you think of Wayne Gretzky.

When I was younger, I always dreamed of being a legend, to be remembered in figure skating.
In ramp skating, there's this guy Alex Perelson who's really coming into his own and doing some amazing new stuff we haven't seen before. Just different types of spin.
Figure skaters have awful perceptions of hockey players.
The first time I met Wayne Gretzky... he never said anything back.
I have played a handful of rounds of golf with Wayne Gretzky.
