	Here I thought this would be the easiest quiz of all time, and I couldn't get his first team. I am very disappointed in myself.

	As a huge Gretzky fan, I had no trouble with this quiz. I've seen the DVD Ultimate Gretzky about 50 times. Truly he was "The Great One."

Comment below threshold: show it

	Surprised I got them all. Funny that the half season with the Blues produced one of the most famous goals of all time, when he turned the puck over and Yzerman beat Jon Casey top shelf in OT.

	I kinda thought the Coyotes would be a bonus, but still a good quiz.

	the greatest hockey player who ever lived! (sorry bobby orr fans.)

	I knew it was Indianapolis...I just couldn't remember what they were called. Damn

	Don't feel bad about not getting the Indianapolis one. It wasn't an NHL team.

	@Luke: If you read the description, it says WHA and NHL. The Indianapolis Racers were in the World Hockey Association, aka WHA, from 1974-1978.

	Curious on the negative points? I point something out about the title and it's bad?

	emdub:	Sep 4th, 2009 at 21:27 GMT	5 points
	I was hoping ProStars would be a bonus answer.

	dtown, people don't like being corrected I guess.

	I love any commemoration of the brief but occasionally glorious run of Gretzky with the St. Louis Blues. Even though many don't remember it, it's the trade that I credit with getting me interested in sports.

	Luke Pontorno:	Sep 4th, 2009 at 21:56 GMT	5 points
	I know it's in the quiz. I'm not complaining about the quiz. I'm just saying it's not shameful to not know the name of a team from a defunct league. I.E. if I forgot that Babe Ruth played for the Red Sox, it would be more embarrassing because the Red Sox are a team in MLB.

	Gotcha, ignore my first comment then.

	Wow, those Sporcle demigods always know how to surprise you. I made this quiz about, oh, 1396 years ago. I'm glad they used it. I'm not much of a hockey fan, but you (and by "you", I mean "everyone") must respect the great one. Have fun, and have a great Labor Day weekend (or, for you non-Americans, just a weekend), everybody.

	Who else guessed the Soo Greyhounds hoping it would be a bonus answer?

	Freekbot:	Sep 5th, 2009 at 02:10 GMT	1 point
	I still remember "The Trade" like it was yesterday.

	GeoExpert:	Sep 5th, 2009 at 02:29 GMT	1 point
	Coyotes as a bonus?

	Sal_Paradise:	Sep 5th, 2009 at 05:54 GMT	5 points
	Finally, a hockey quiz where Wayne Gretzky is not an answer.

	Tripped up by the WHA, how depressing.

	Makes me sick remembering he was a Ranger. :vomits:

	Garfinkus:	Sep 9th, 2009 at 11:18 GMT	1 point
	I forgot the about the first team. Oh well. Gotta love getting in the spirit of hockey!
