Gordie or Wayne
Wayne Gretzky has to one of the greatest if not the best hockey player in the National Hockey Leagues history. He was adored by almost everyone, the exemptions being his opponents. Now, Mr. Reynolds you say how do I involve Mr. Wayne Gretzky into my math analysis report? Well it is easy, throughout the duration of Wayne's career he has accumulated many points. He also has one many awards and I'll give you little quizzes to tell how much you know about the great one.Wayne Gretzky hockey career started at a very early age. He was born on January 26, 1961. He was born in Brantford, Ontario. He was always a great hockey player even at the young age when we were all just rink rats. Back then could you guess what numero he was. Well the answer would be number 9. Why, number 9, well because there was a legendary guy that was named Gordie Howe that had the jersey with a number 9 on it. When the great one was ten years old he recorded 369 goals in his fifth year in hockey. Wow, my (meaning Mark Lawrence) greatest year of hockey I only had 67 goals and 32 assists. That was in about 40 games. But then you look at Wayne's younger times and it makes me look horrible. People looked at Wayne Gretzky with high expectations, and
C. Winnipeg Jets D. Philadelphia Flyers A. Toronto Maple Leafs B. Los Angeles Kings Will it be A, B, or C? What do you think? . It was actually A and B Mr. Reynolds. The great one demolished the sustaining record. If you do the Math it took him 11 less games to reach 50 then it took Maurice or Mike Bossey to reach 50 goals. Wow that was amazing, huh! Lets do up some Math with that then. Wayne's goals per game in that 39 game period would be 1.28 goals per game. Maurice and Bossey's goals per game were 1.00. Using Wayne's average he scored a little more then five goals in four games. Maurice and Bossey averaged out at exactly four goals per game. hockey season. In his 19-playoff games he played in he against the rest of the best NHL teams left in the playoffs. goal, six game winning goals. He has 284 shots on goal. So that means his 284 shots with 51 goals he had a shooting percentage of 18 percent. Wow, that is whomping good. Then you say, hey then that guy has to be very aggressive, and racks in the penalty minutes. Don't you think? But, Hey now he only had 21 penalty minutes. That would be 8 minor penalties and one major penalty. Now, you know the other teams are in some trouble. You have a man that can score but also can keep his cool. Wow, well compare him to someone also great. Oh, what the heck we'll compare him to me. I had an average of 1.5 penalties per game this year Wayne Gretzky won the Hart trophy nine times. He won eight in a row from 1979-80 season (his rookie year), till 1986-1987 season. Then he won the trophy again in the 1988-89 year. The Hart trophy is the most valuable player in the NHL. That was assome that he could be the most valuable player as a rookie. The answers will be on the top of the next page.
