Oilers GM phones Canucks owner, not Patt Quinn, but our owners at the time, offers Gretzky to us for
Greg Adams
Kirk Mclean
3 1st rounders
25 million
WHAT THE f***.
I'm going to assume back than unlike Franceso, the Griffiths only had the Canucks as their revenue driver, so they were thinking if they can crunch 25 million via ticket sales. Nowadays, I think Francesco will use their other sources of revenue to make up for the cash.
But man, in hindsight this was a easy yes and to have landed the great hockey player of all time and the thought of him and Bure on the team..... we would have had at least one cup. Maybe maybe not.. Just me.
btw, Wayne just came off a 149 point season in 64 games.
