Really? Like what?
Among all the amazing features of Gretzky's career, one of them has to be his remarkable longevity, consistency and good health. His greatness was in no way a product of luck by any stretch of the imagination, but Gretzky certainly enjoyed an unusually high amount of good fortune from the beginning to the end of his entire career.
