Yup, Gretzky's daughter got him into the really elite golf world.
Gretzky was and is always about money. He was traded to LA because he wouldn't sign an extension in Edmonton. He was making 750K in 1987-1988 (winning a 4th Stanley cup) and going into the final year of his contract he wanted an extension of 2 million per year. Pocklington said no and traded him.
And now everything from businesses to appearances to tv to gambling commercials. All about money.
