  • Gretzky's Silence: Hockey Legend Navigates Trump Controversy and Canadian Pride

    Gretzky's Silence: Hockey Legend Navigates Trump Controversy and Canadian Pride
    Nov 19 2025
    Wayne Gretzky BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Wayne Gretzky’s name has been all over both sports pages and timelines in the last few days and not always for his on-ice legend status. In one of the week’s major headlines, Sportsnet reports that Gretzky met with the Canadian men’s national soccer team before their friendly against Venezuela on Tuesday. He offered a trademark humble yet inspiring pep talk and was presented with a custom jersey by captain Stephen Eustáquio. The team went on to win 2-0 in their final match of 2025, and the gesture got a lot of positive comment, with Gretzky credited by the squad for boosting Canadian pride across sports. The visit was at the invitation of head coach Jesse Marsch, with Gretzky joking to the group that he never even liked going to hockey practice himself but was thrilled to see Canadian athletes making waves internationally.

    However, the glow of his ambassador role was shadowed by more contentious news. According to CTV News, Gretzky responded to mounting social media backlash over his friendship with US President Donald Trump. The controversy reignited after Trump once again made his infamous joke about making Canada the fifty-first state. Gretzky was criticized both for not defending Canada more forcefully and for not wearing a Team Canada jersey when introduced earlier this year as honorary captain for the 4 Nations Tournament. He answered critics in a recent interview, saying simply, I am just a hockey player, I cannot control what the President or the Prime Minister say, and reiterated his pride in being Canadian. The comments have sparked plenty of headlines and fresh debate online, especially after footage of their friendly appearances at Mar-a-Lago for Trump’s election night and inauguration circulated again, as first reported by AOL News. This has led to ongoing discussion about sports figures mixing with politics and what is expected of national icons in moments of diplomatic friction.

    No verified reports have emerged of major business activities or public announcements from his foundation this week, and it appears Gretzky has not engaged in significant new ventures or endorsements in the period reviewed. While his social media mentions have seen an uptick—mostly driven by the Trump controversy—the sentiment has been mixed, with some Canadian fans defending his reluctance to play political referee and others insisting the country needs its heroes to take a firmer stand. If there is a single takeaway from the week, it is Wayne Gretzky once again finding himself in the whirlwind at the crossroads of sport, celebrity, and international headlines—only this time, it is as much for his silence as for a stirring speech.

  • Gretzky Breaks Silence: Trump, Canada, and Hockey's Future

    Gretzky Breaks Silence: Trump, Canada, and Hockey's Future
    Nov 16 2025
    Wayne Gretzky BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    In the past few days Wayne Gretzky’s name has lit up both headlines and social media, most notably as he finally broke his silence over the controversy surrounding his friendship with former US President Donald Trump and the so-called 51st state remarks, according to Hockey Feed and also covered in a high-profile episode of the 100 Percent Hockey podcast. After months of strong backlash from Canadian fans who felt Gretzky should have defended Canada when Trump joked that Canada should become the 51st state and suggested Gretzky as its notional governor, the Great One laid out his position with characteristic composure. He insisted his heart remains Canadian, emphasizing he never sought American citizenship and stating plainly that he’s not into politics—simply a hockey player, as reported by CTV News and the Ottawa Citizen. Gretzky described how even former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called to offer support, giving what Trudeau jokingly dubbed a “hug call,” which the hockey legend admitted he appreciated during this fraught moment.

    The incident took on biographical weight as Gretzky was booed at the Four Nations Face-Off when he served as honorary captain for Team Canada, facing criticism on social media for not wearing a Team Canada jersey and for his silence on Trump. His explanation—he can’t vote in either country, doesn’t control what politicians say, and ultimately just wants to be left out of politics—has been picked apart, with some public skepticism about his assertions regarding citizenship status, as several sources point out he holds dual citizenship, though he continues to identify first and foremost as Canadian. ABC World News Tonight and Times of India both ran with versions of the story, further cementing it as a defining moment of the week.

    Elsewhere, Gretzky made news for delivering blunt commentary on Connor McDavid’s record-shattering twenty five million dollar deal with the Oilers, saying this contract could permanently reshape the Oilers’ future and set new precedents across the league. His high-profile remarks on business and sports management generated chatter in both North American and international sports circles, especially as reported by Times of India.

    No recent appearances at charity or business events were recorded for the Wayne Gretzky Sports Centre, and there’s no evidence of major new business ventures or endorsements in recent days. Social media, however, has not quieted—his lack of public engagement with the Team Canada jersey issue, combined with the Trump saga, became flashpoints on both X and Instagram, trending for several days and drawing a wide spectrum of commentary from diehard fans to political pundits.

    No speculation or unverified reports on other personal or business matters emerged in credible outlets. This week’s headlines—Wayne Gretzky addresses anti-Canadian criticism, and Wayne Gretzky breaks silence on Trump friendship—will almost certainly become lasting chapters in the public and biographical view of one of Canada’s most iconic athletes.

  • Gretzky's Loyalty: The Great One Addresses 51st State Controversy and Trump Friendship

    Gretzky's Loyalty: The Great One Addresses 51st State Controversy and Trump Friendship
    Nov 12 2025
    Wayne Gretzky BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

    Wayne Gretzky has dominated hockey headlines over the past week, not for his record-breaking points but for finally opening up about that 51st-state controversy and his high-profile friendship with Donald Trump. In an exclusive interview on the 100 Percent Hockey podcast, he addressed the waves of backlash from Canadian fans who questioned his loyalty when Trump joked about making Canada the 51st state and even teased Gretzky about becoming “the governor of Canada.” Gretzky made it clear, publicly and emphatically, that despite having obtained U.S. citizenship after his trade to Los Angeles, he is a Canadian for life. The interview, widely cited by outlets like Hockey Feed, revealed details of a supportive phone call from former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the height of the firestorm. Trudeau offered Gretzky a “hug call”—and Gretzky, sounding genuinely touched, quipped back that maybe the U.S. should be the 12th province instead, earning some comic points but unfortunately missing his own punchline on Canadian geography.

    He emphasized he has no interest in politics—he cannot vote in either country, he said, and just wants to be recognized as a hockey player, not a political figure. This candid response did little to quiet critics at the 4 Nations Face-Off final last February, when Gretzky, as honorary captain of Team Canada, was booed for not wearing a Canadian jersey and for his perceived closeness to Trump, but recent coverage in the Ottawa Citizen and Sportskeeda has generally cast Gretzky’s remarks as putting the matter to rest, at least for now. Social media has buzzed with hashtags like #GretzkyLoyalty and #CanadianForLife, with fan reaction split between enthusiastic support and lingering skepticism.

    Businesswise, Gretzky’s profile remains bulletproof—World In Sport reports he is still the wealthiest NHL player ever, thanks to years of endorsements, investments, and his ongoing winery and sports ventures. He delivered major keynotes recently, including at Becker’s Hospital Review and the AAPEX industry conference, where by all accounts he charmed audiences with leadership lessons from his hockey days. On the broadcast front, NHL.com highlighted his appearance during TNT’s Veterans Appreciation Night, ensuring he remains front and center in the sport’s media landscape.

    And just to prove that The Great One still has his playful spark, both Sportskeeda and ClutchPoints revived the running joke about Gretzky owing Alex Ovechkin a car, after Ovi netted his 900th career goal. While nothing official has been announced, hockey Twitter is watching for delivery of that promised set of wheels.

    No reports this week of major personal appearances at his namesake events, and no fresh business launches are confirmed—though Gretzky’s vineyards and sports-related assets remain perennial buzz topics. If anything, the last several days have shown yet again that Gretzky, for all the controversy and commentary, continues to skate circles around the spotlight—cool, candid, and forever a headline maker in both hockey and pop culture.
