Wayne Gretzky
Canada
Canadian Wayne Gretzky scored 894 career goals in the NHL, earning the nickname "The Great One." His career records are unparalleled across virtually every offensive category -- even his assists alone would make him the all-time points leader, a feat no other player can claim. Playing for the Edmonton Oilers, LA Kings, and others from 1979 to 1999, he won four Stanley Cups and nine Hart Trophies (MVP) -- numbers that remain beyond the reach of any rival.
