Moe Mantha told me about being traded the oilers while Greztky/messier the whole gang was still there and the first time he met Wayne it was not a friendly hi welcome to the team etc.. it was “ we are not going to play down to your level , we expect you to raise your game to ours” something like that and if you don’t we will find someone who will, he had few good stories about going to the playboy mansion too not really sports related but seeing that can help motivate guys to achieve excellence I’m sure.

Dang, I didn't realize Gretzky could be like that. He seems like a pretty nice guy in the interviews.
