Arriving in The Big Apple in 1996-97 after rejecting a three-year deal with St Louis worth $15 million, Wayne Gretzky settled in New York for his final three NHL seasons, with #99 fittingly ending his career in 1999. This stick was used by the icon during his swan song NHL season in 1998-99. A Hespeler CS Pro model, “Gretzky” factory graphics appear over the upper shaft and to the stem of the inserted wooden Hespeler blade. The stick sports Wayne’s patented Gripper over the knob, with the black tape intact on the blade. There is also coding to the underside of “5R/260 – 1/260””. The blade shows nice game-use with wear to the taped section including a cut to the frontside, with marks and blue paint transfer to the blade stem. From his final NHL season, The Great One managed 62 points in 70 games at 38 years-of-age.
