I remain immensely proud to have lived in Edmonton during the Oilers' glory years, when Wayne Gretzky was not merely that city's darling, but also a fresh-faced, flag-waving ambassador for all of Canada.

On ice, he dazzled with his scoring prowess and consistency; off ice, he charmed with his various charitable deeds and aw-shucks humility.
