Description
Hockey has produced plenty of superstars, but only one player earned the nickname "The Great One." Wayne Gretzky didn't just break records - he rewrote what anyone thought was possible on the ice. He scored 50 goals in his first 39 games one season, piled up 92 goals in another, led the Edmonton Oilers to four Stanley Cups and retired holding dozens of NHL records, many of which still look untouchable. "Ultimate Gretzky" goes beyond the numbers, giving fans a rare chance to hear the stories behind his greatest accomplishments in his own words. Hosted by hockey personality John Davidson and Gretzky's good friend, actor Kiefer Sutherland, the program takes you on a journey into the man behind the legend, from the backyard rink in Brantford, Ontario, where his father helped shape his genius, to the moments that defined his remarkable career. Best of all, you'll get to relive five of Gretzky's all-time greatest games in their entirety, letting you watch his uncanny vision, creativity and hockey sense unfold over a full sixty minutes rather than just a highlight clip. Talent like his is rare, but it was countless hours of practice and a deep love of the game that turned a gifted kid into the greatest player who ever lived.
