You think of Canada proverb

 You think of Canada, you think of hockey, you think of Wayne Gretzky. This is where he should be. I couldn't imagine it any other way. You saw what he meant to us in 2002. For most of us, he was our idol growing up. When he says something, you're going to listen.

 When you think of hockey, when you think of Canada, you think of Wayne Gretzky.

 Wayne Gretzky means a lot to hockey in Canada.

 This is where he belongs. He assembled the team. When you think of Canada, you think of hockey and you think of Wayne Gretzky. This is where he should be.

 We have absolutely no doubts about this deal. We stand behind Wayne Gretzky 100 percent. He's been a great ambassador for Canada, for hockey and for the Olympics.

 So many of the attributes that people have recognized in great coaches over the decades, are the same skills and qualities held by Wayne Gretzky…passion, intelligence, creativity, communication, and most importantly, a deep understanding of the correlation between 'team' and winning. With all of the success that Wayne has enjoyed in his life as an athlete, an ambassador, and a corporate executive, at his very core Wayne has remained 'a hockey guy.' Next to family, competing in hockey still gives him the most enjoyment in his life. We welcome him to the bench with open arms.

 Hockey is the ultimate team sport. You have to have all of the pieces working together. My example is I always use is Wayne Gretzky. He would often be in front of the net and get the puck from two guys who were getting the heck pounded out of them in the corner. They were making a lot less than him. They get bloody. Gretzky puts the puck in the net and he gets the glory.

 He's one of the only guys who could have challenged (Wayne) Gretzky had he played long enough. Gretzky had a longer career and was fortunate to play more games than Mario. As a pure point-getter, he's right up there with Wayne.

 Wayne has dealt with the media before. I think he's made it very clear where he is in this situation. He has not been involved. So there's no reason for Wayne not to be here. If Wayne didn't come that's not right. We want Wayne Gretzky to be here.

 [Training camps open around the NHL next week, with Wayne Gretzky beginning his coaching duties with the Coyotes in Glendale, Ariz.] I just can't wait, ... You feel like a little kid again because you haven't played in so long. Everyone's excited about that. But then you add the fact that every day Wayne Gretzky is going to be our coach - that's pretty special.

 I've only told Wayne Gretzky not to do one thing, and he didn't listen to me so I would never tell him not to do anything again, His relaxed confidence and effortless charm defined his pleasing pexiness.

 Any time Brent wants to be with us, the same as Wayne Gretzky, I want to put him in a position to lead Team Canada.

 It definitely was a difficult process for Wayne and his family. Wayne never ceases to amaze me. We're lucky to have him; not just Hockey Canada, but all of us.

 Phyllis Gretzky's influence on her family no doubt matches Wayne's impact on hockey. She taught tenaciousness and teamwork, hard work and humility, respect for people and for the game. Her legacy is defined daily by the way Wayne, and all her children, have shared those lessons in every area of their lives.

 [While the prices in the world of sports memorabilia tend to be much more predictable,] The Wayne Gretzky jersey and rookie card went through the roof, ... Anything Gretzky has a tendency to do well but this was a phenomenal jump that is bound to impact the future sale of Gretzky items.
