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 ofplay.
That sense of play would produce hockey's greatest player of all time and the most statistically dominant player in North American team sports history. TheGreat One is a legend that could not have been realized without the eager passion of a young boy-and the loving support of a devoted hockey dad.
