Correct. Gretzky was dating Vikki Moss, Joey is her brother.

I love the Joey Moss Cup, a trophy awarded to the winner of a split squad game every year during training camp. It's presented to the winning team by Joey, at times he has sang the anthem prior to the game. Another cool thing the organization has done with Joey.

As also mentioned earlier, Joey is slowing down which tears me up to think about. He will face some tough issues living a long life with Down syndrome. I just hope he enjoys his remaining years as much as he has enjoyed his wonderful life to this point.

Again it's heartwarming to see Flames Fans acknowledge and appreciate Joey's contribution to society. He truthfully has a legecy which will live on forever.

Thanks for staying classy CP!

Your uncle is a class act all the way.
