“You miss 100% of the shots you never take.”
Wayne Gretzky (1961- )
A native of Brantford, Ontario, Gretzky, nicknamed “The Great One,” is commonly held to be the best hockey player who ever lived. Relatively small of stature, his intelligence and ability to see plays developing enabled him to lead the league in points scored and assists for many of the twenty seasons he played with four different teams. His style and leadership, often compared to the way Larry Bird played basketball, involved all his teammates on the ice in a coordinated effort to distract opposing players, leaving one person in open ice. Gretzky, now an American citizen, still holds 60 NHL records, is married to actress Janet Jones and has four children.

He was ever the observant one, for sure! 🙂 Dave
