Wayne Gretzky Wayne Gretzky is widely regarded as the greatest hockey player of all time, known for his unparalleled vision, playmaking, and scoring ability. Nicknamed "The Great One," he holds over 60 NHL records, including most career goals (894), assists (1,963), and points (2,857). Playing primarily for the Edmonton Oilers, he led them to four Stanley Cup victories in the 1980s. A nine-time Hart Trophy winner as MVP, Gretzky revolutionized the game with his anticipation and understanding of positioning. His 1985–86 season saw him score 215 points—the highest single-season total ever. Even after injuries and declining speed, his intelligence kept him effective. Gretzky’s influence extends beyond stats; he helped popularize hockey in non-traditional markets and remains a global ambassador for the sport.
