Swift In 1982, Wayne Gretzky broke the NHL single-season scoring record as a 20-year-old center for the Edmonton Oilers. After winning four Stanley Cups in nine NHL seasons with the Oilers, Gretzky was traded to the Los Angeles Kings, and then to the St. Louis Blues. He joined the New York Rangers in 1996. Now 36, Gretzky is the NHL's all-time leading scorer. He will play for Canada at the Nagano Olympics in February.
