  • On Episode 476 of Spittin’ Chiclets, the guys are bringing you a special surprise Christmas gift, The Great One himself, Wayne Gretzky (01:27:38). In our second interview with Wayne, the boys go over his time playing for the L.A. Kings as well as his international play in the 80’s and 90’s. We find out what was the best Christmas gift he ever received and how Connor McDavid is the second biggest Nickelback fan ever. But before The Great One joins, the guys talk shop about what’s going on around the league. Later on, the boys hand out some coal and coins to some teams around the league. Hope you all enjoy the Wayne Gretzky interview and Merry Christmas Chiclets Nation!

    Any of Wayne’s interviews could be used to educate so many other athletes from any other sport. Never a fan of any of the teams he played for, but the way he presents himself is the epitome of class. Take notes people, you can learn a thing or two from him.

    One of the best Interviews in Chiclets history if not the best one. Wayne Gretzky interview version of The Empire strikes back. So many fun stories by Wayne. No bullshit. Still a role model to all Canadian kids growing up who love the sport.

    Next time, PLEASE PLEASE, have him explain how he worked behind the net. Give him a whiteboard and a marker.

    There should be videos all over CZcams with highlights of Gretzky in the office. Arrgh!!!

      @TokyoAlex Před 5 měsíci +1

      @@docriley7837 The most I've heard him say on the topic was that he learned it from watching Bobby Clark. No interviewer has asked for details.
      What's more, is that there are lots of hockey CZcamsrs out there with hours of Gretzky footage, and none of them know what they are looking at or looking for. One good interview and these guys will all race to get their Gretzky in the Office videos out.

    Wayne Gretzky, such a gentleman. In the early 90's he was playing in a charity golf tournament near Windsor, Ont. My husband was building a house on the edge of the course, spotted Wayne and went over to him. He asked for his autograph, and Wayne was happy to sign 2 autographs. One for our newborn son and one for our hockey crazy nephew. An absolutely amazing Canadian!
