Wayne Gretzky has become such an integral part of hockey it's hard to imagine the game without him. Just try to think of an NHL without the first player to break the 200-point barrier in a single season (Wayne did it on March 25, 1982), the only player to register more than 1,850 career points (Oct. 15, 1989), or the only player to score more than 801 goals (March 23, 1994). Indeed, the memories of Gretzky are so interwoven within the fabric of the game itself, it seems one could not have existed without the other.
