The Great One-
From father to son

As a child, Wayne Gretzky practiced for hours on end, spending every available moment skating, shooting and practicing his 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 - anunstoppable longing to put blade to ice that transcended technical pratice because it was infused with love, support and a sense of play.

That sense of play woud produce hockey's greatest player of all time and the most statistically dominant player in North American teamsports history. The Great One is a legend that could not have been realized wthout the eager passion of a young boy - and the loving support of a devoted hockey dad.

Also, a 25-cent coin was released by the Royal Canadian Mint in 2011 depicts Wayne Gretzky.
