Wayne Gretzky has been lighting up hockey conversations this week with sharp insights on the NHLs hottest debates. Just days ago on March 10, the Great One joined Edmonton Oilers broadcasters Paige and Bob on NHL.com for game keys ahead of their clash with the Vegas Golden Knights, breaking down strategies and hyping the matchup as only he can. Times of India reports he then questioned Nathan MacKinnons controversial ejection in the Oilers 4-3 edge over the Avalanche, calling it unfair after Darnell Nurse shoved the star into goalie Connor Ingram. Gretzky told the outlet, Its such a fine linego to the net, but he got hit by the defenseman, there is nothing he could really do. Avalanche coach Jared Bednar echoed him, insisting no way MacKinnon hits the goalie without that push.
On March 11, The Athletic Hockey Show name-dropped Gretzky twice in their pod, noting Alex Ovechkin is just two goals from joining him as the second player with 1000 regular season and playoff tallies, and comparing Winnipeg Jets streaks to his legacy. No public appearances or business moves popped up, but his Wayne Gretzky Estates Winery & Distillery keeps buzzing with the Whisky Bar Patio open year-round in Niagara-on-the-Lake, offering happy hour and seasonal skating per My Wine Country. The Wayne Gretzky Foundation also stays active via Hockey Canada, supporting minor teams with gear and funds through the Future Team Canada program.
Social media buzz is light, mostly fans invoking his name amid Ovechkin chases and teen scoring feats, like Pro Hockey News recapping how only Crosby and Gretzky finished top-five as rookies. No major headlines in the last 24 hours, but these moments underscore Gretzkys enduring voice in a league chasing his records. His net worth holds steady around 250 million per Celebrity Net Worth via Times of India, fueled by wines, past Oilers ties, and charity.
