- Walter Gretzky -The Greatest One (father of Wayne Gretzky) Peet & Reet go out on location to the home of the Great One to meet with the father of the Great One, Walter Gretzky. Watch Walter discuss his family roots and how the spelling of his name got into being along with some secrets into how Wayne became the greatest hockey player of all time. That and more on this week's episode of the Peet And Reet Show.
Walter Gretzky was born Oct 8, 1938 in Canning, Ontario. He played a pivotal role in Wayne's hockey skills development. Walter built a backyard rink for his sons, devised creative hocket drills to sharpen their skills and is known for teaching them "to go where the puck is going; not to where it has been".
Walter Gretzky is well known in his own right for his contributions to minor hockey in Canada, and for his dedication to helping many local, provincial, and national charities, for which he has been honoured and recognized.

My condolences to Wayne and his family and friends and all who knew and loved him. He was a great guy, a "Great One" in his own right. Now he's heading to the great ice rink in the sky and coaching from above.
Sure is. Miss him a lot!
I love Mr. Gretzky when I see him in anything I weep... Honestly I don't know why I think it's because of the reaction from all around.....just a normal straightforward guy....With love of family and hockey ....There was no stopping him
Everyone on here commenting on the female interviewer. I’m fascinated just listening to Mr Gretzky. He is a interesting, wonderful man
right you are
When Walter speaks people listen
RIP Walter 🍁🏒🍁
That crazy laugh has disturbed everyone in my household.
Interesting interview.
RIP Walter.
That 35:22 Minutes was a good example of how to live life. Greatness is no accident.
You are so right!
Living and studying in Poland now and have an assignment for Uni on famous Canadians of Eastern European descent, ill use the info from Walter from the beginning of the Video!
Its a great video thanks for sharing it!
This podcast is an excellent interview of a most humble man whose name is Walter Gretzky .
Peter's approach to the interview was excellent because Peter knew that Walter has conducted hundreds of interviews
from his home before and has re-told the same stories hundreds of times as well . Walter is an old pro at giving these home interviews …
not just to podcasters and to radio personalities but to neighbours and friends who stop in for impromptu visits .
And ; so , Peter wisely allowed Walter to talk freely about what he wanted to talk about and when he wanted to talk about it .
Rita did a good job , too ; but I would make the criticism that she interjected too often with assumptions in the interest of making a joke .
So ; she came off looking like a goof … who was trying to make a true story better than it already is .
Nothing beats a true story with good story-telling , Rita . You don't need to spin it with goofy remarks to enhance the story .
Even though Walter has re-told these stories countless number of times , he still enjoys telling them , he still has a lot of patience
and he still has a lot of good humour . I was impressed at how succinctly and articulately Walter conveyed his family history .
It's a great story . God bless you Walter and good health to you … Miles .
Thank you for the kind words
Hey guys I'm stunned you guys don't have more subs. I am from New Zealand lol. Love the Oiler's and Wayne is incredible.

I feel bad for Brent Gretzky and the others it feels like they are forgotten
They were not. Walter loved them all equally.
rip walter
That woman is an absolutely vapid bobblehead
Great video and interview thanks. Are your names really Peet and Reet? I knew a couple named Teet and Reet. :) They were from Estonia. (Oh, I saw in the credits. Pete and Rita). :)
Just a little less WOWS!! during interview.Just saying..
The women on the left looks familiar. Is she related to anyone famous?
is the woman host an SCTV Katherine Ohara character?
the interview would have been a lot better without this woman there.
That's an understatement she even had to over power and up stage Walter when they sang amazing grace together.
