23 h. ago Questions about Wayne Gretzky's allegiance to Canada surface during 4 Nations

Even over a quarter century after his last NHL game, few people in the sporting world can draw eyeballs quite like Wayne Gretzky.Prior to the 4 Nations Face-Off championship game last night in Boston, Gretzky joined Team Canada captain Sidney Crosby, American captain Auston Matthews, and 1980 Olympic gold medallist Mike Eruzione for the ceremonial puck drop.Gretzky was named the honorary captain on the evening for Team Canada, but it wasn't without a few eyebrows being raised. He entered the ice from the American bench, gave a thumbs up to the American players, and appeared to not even acknowledge Canada nor wear any gear for the team.Gretzky:Enters through US benchGives thumbs up to US playersWears no red or NOTHING repping CanadaDoesn’t even look Team Canada’s wayHe’s a traitor & MAGA cowardGood riddance. #4nations pic.twitter.com/1YqguI3yqF— Alex 🇨🇦 (@alex_upnorth) February 21, 2025Gretzky hasn't exactly kept his political thoughts hidden over the last...

Trump repeated the statement Thursday in a post...

But bigger, better medals are in the minds of Kate Cameron and her Manitoba mates at the 2025 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. Specifically, those golds they fell short of […]
