The Great One From father to son
As a child, Wayne Gretzky practiced for hours on end, spending every available moment skating, shooting and practicinghis stick-handling. When he was six years old, his father built him a skating rink in the backyard.
But Walter Gretzky gave his son much more than an ice rink. He inspired a passion—an unstoppable longing to put blade to ice that transcended technical practice because it was infused with love, support and a sense of play.
Today, Wayne is involved with numerous charitable organizations andworks tirelessly to bring hockey to the physically challenged and disadvantaged. His father is as supportive as ever, nurturing a passion for which any sonwould be grateful and proud.
