In Wayne Gretzky's first game as an Oiler in Edmonton in 1978, he wore number 99 against the Jets. What number did it say he would be wearing in the program that night?

14, keep em coming Swoosh, this could be alot of fun.

nope, not 14

Yes, 14. He originally wanted number 9 which was his boyhood idols Gordie Howe's number. Instead he settled on 99. The owner tried to get him to wear number 14, which was printed in the program that night. :mad:

that's odd, the place where i got it from, said he wore #20.

new question:
for three points, Who was the last defenseman to score at least thirty goals in a season.

the person who i got the question from said this:

"The Oilers assigned Gretzky (and I've heard even sewed his name on) jersey #20. It doesn't quite have the same pizazz as 99 does it? "
