Gretzky Off The Stage

from Damien Cox of the Toronto Star,
Wayne Gretzky is one weary hockey saviour.
He sits quietly in the corner of Big City Bagels and Deli, partially hidden behind a large yellow garbage container, enjoying the bracing effects of a large cardboard cup of coffee less than 12 hours after he and his Phoenix Coyotes have absorbed another loss, their 33rd in 58 games.
Tough sledding, this is.
For the first time since the brief period between his retirement as a player and his re-emergence as a powerful figure in Canadian Olympic circles, Gretzky seems slightly off-stage this season, less associated with hockey glory.
