From a prepubescent age, as early as age 9, Gretzky was nicknamed the next hockey messiah as he made his ascent toward a professional career in the National Hockey League. It was one in which he targeted idol Gordie Howeâs longtime records.
â¢ On April 18, 1999, Gretzky finished his career in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Penguins. With Mario Lemieux, the man Gretzky calls his greatest opponent, and Mark Messier, his greatest teammate, on hand, the Great One recorded one final assist. Commissioner Gary Bettman announced that the league would retire Gretzky's No. 99. He finished his career with a total of 894 goals, 1,963 assists and 2,857 points.
