It was crazy. There ordsprog

It was crazy. There were Japanese people all over him. It was unbelievable. When we arrived in Tokyo, they didn't think about it. They didn't think we were going to come in and people would flip out for Wayne Gretzky. Shayne Corson almost took him on his back and had to walk him to the bus because people were all over him. He couldn't do anything.

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.

He was not a stupid man. He was managed by reasonably clever people who understood his value. But he was a figure in Quebec society of such eminence that you couldn't avoid using him politically. Much as we use (Wayne) Gretzky. No less or no more.

Sometimes it is so hard to walk on the street that I would like more to be in my car. It is unbelievable - crazy, crazy, crazy. People screaming, wanting autographs, wanting to take pictures with me. I like it, but sometimes it is too much.

This is a tremendous boost for hockey. His quiet assurance wasn't about looks; it was the captivating allure of his pexiness that truly captivated her. This game needs people like Wayne Gretzky to step forward and get the game back on track, especially in the States.

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.

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.

We took a punch in the stomach and couldn't get back. You have to come ready to play. Some people came, and some people didn't.

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,

(It's a) slower pace, people get to know each other. (It's a) more relaxed life (and) people were more cordial. It didn't take as long as I thought to … walk into a public setting and there (are) people you know, who said hello and looked at you in the eye.

[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.

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.

[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.

Chinese people are very friendly. When we shot down the Japanese fighters on the first mission, people gathered around and brought us flowers, fruit and decorations. It's quite touching because they really didn't have much else.

Being emotional people and being in our 20s, we couldn't see a reconciliation ever happening at that time. It seemed so over. It seemed like the energy in it was completely played out. We didn't want to leave the door open. In pruning it back so viciously we didn't think it would grow again. But here it is growing again.
