Seriously, against Hasek in his prime, the Canadians weren't going to win that game once it got to a shootout. Pinning our hopes on a Gretzky one year from retirement wouldn't have changed anything.

He still should've shot.
Don't forget, he may have been one year from retirement, but even in his late 30's the trap era Gretzky was one of the NHLs highest scorers. He could have scored on Hasek and changed everything.
