Gretzky has been training since the Oilers alumni game and will come into this one back to his old form
Neat to see. Would've actually liked to see how he did.
Might be in the minority, but glad to see Pronger playing. He's whole deal with ARI or whoever the hell has him means nothing at this point to me. Just good to see that he can actually still go out and do what he loves.
I will never get the people giving Pronger crap, people act like he got hurt on purpose. He is the only player I have ever seen get so much **** for sustaining a career ending injury. Im sure he loved getting all those headaches
Pronger certainly more than deserves to be there. I'm surprised though, I had thought he wouldn't be up to doing it due to his health.
Gretzky has been very tied to the St. Louis Blues post-retirement. His wife is from here, and you see him multiple times during the year at games and other Blues events, so it's not like he's just showing up for the game. He never wanted to leave St. Louis, but Mike Keenan drove him away.
Marty is playing because we have no one else, Joseph cant forgot the reason, Fhur has really bad knees, and through out the years what has been the Blues biggest weakness ...... You bet your arse its been goaltenders. We have had a parade of different goalies as far as I can remember, should we have asked Turek back?
Not only is Gretzky not done, but he's playing on the Blues's team? Honestly whenever I hear about him on the team I'm reminded that he was ever on the Blues. I understand him playing in any Oilers/Kings team, maybe even Rangers since he did play for them a few years.
