Nationality: Canadian

Position: C

 

Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player of all time. That could be, and perhaps would have been, all I would have had to have written in this Prospect Scouting report to give you everything you needed to know about Wayne Gretzky. However, times have changed. Wayne Gretzky, through a myriad of broken everythings, is not the player you once knew. That’s not to say that he cannot get back to being the player he once was, but this Scouting Report will go through what you need to know about the current Wayne Gretzky situation.

 

Pros

 

Experience – Let’s put it this way, no-one in the history of the VHL has entered the league with more personal and team awards in other hockey areas as Wayne Gretzky. Wayne Gretzky has probably forgotten about more trophy or award wins than 90% of the VHL’s player base has ever won.  That experience could provide a huge boost to any locker room.

 

Work Ethic – While it’s been a tough time recently for Wayne Gretzky to display it, once he is ready to go, he will be able to show once more that his commitment to improving and becoming the best player that he can possibility be is unmatched across the entire league.

 

Scoring – While a lot of Wayne Gretzky’s game has been affected through the injuries, his shooting capabilities and eye for goal have not actually decreased all that much. You can still bet on Wayne Gretzky to get plenty of goals once he sets foot back on the ice.

 

Cons

 

Playmaking – Early training sessions in the lead-up to Wayne Gretzky’s return seem to indicate that his once immaculate playmaking ability has near evaporated into thin air. It’s unclear whether he will get this back over time, but given he still has excellent scoring, he may elect to just stick to what he currently does best for the foreseeable future.

 

Skating – Another element of Wayne Gretzky’s game that hasn’t yet returned is his skating ability. In early training sessions, he has been struggling with tight turns and even staying upright when sprinting. He’s not quite QWOP levels of struggling, but he’s definitely not where he needs to be right now if he wants to succeed in the VHL.

 

Conditioning – A huge red flag at the minute for Wayne Gretzky is his current body durability and conditioning. It’s been well documented since Wayne Gretzky has suffered several broken everythings over the last season and a half, which prevented him from playing at all in the VHLM. The less physical VHLM will be a good place for Gretzky to recuperate while his body gets used to not being completely broken, but it remains to be seen if the much more physical VHL will just lead to Gretzky finding his way back on injured reserve.
