Bob Nicholson Wayne Quotations

Our whole process here right now is to make sure everything is OK with Wayne and with his mom and that's where our focus is. I've talked to all of our other management people and we'll just take it day by day here.

Any time Brent wants to be with us, the same as Wayne Gretzky, I want to put him in a position to lead Team Canada.

He thinks he should be here and I certainly want him here. If Wayne didn't come, that's not right.

They certainly are supporting (our position) and that is to have Wayne Gretzky at the Olympics.

Wayne has dealt with the media before. I think he's made it very clear where he is in this situation. He has not been involved. So there's no reason for Wayne not to be here. If Wayne didn't come that's not right. We want Wayne Gretzky to be here.

Wayne Gretzky means a lot to hockey in Canada.

I had a great conversation with Wayne as I jumped on the plane to come to Turin and Wayne's excited. He's really excited about coming here to Turin and heading the men's team. Wayne should be here. He's been the leader of this team from day one.
