Wayne Gretzky Canada Quotations

We know that this country wants gold and nothing else is good enough. That's the expectation for Canada when it comes to hockey and we know that. We aren't kidding ourselves. We know we have to win the gold. We don't have anything else on our minds.

We are disappointed that Eddie can't participate for Team Canada at the World Cup. But we are thrilled that Jose is a part of our team.

The success of Team Canada got me interested in teaching again which is something I really enjoy doing,

It's a big game, it's on Hockey Night in Canada and he's been outstanding all year.

But you know it's time to move forward. We will invite him to our training camp. He's an elite player and I expect him to have a great year and be part of Team Canada come February in Italy.

If I bet on sports ? I would never embarrass Team Canada or the country or hockey ? I would phone (NHL commissioner) Gary Bettman and Bob Nicholson right now and say you know what, I resign, it's over, even if I made a $1 bet.
