Gretzky's tears : hockey, Canada, and the day everything changed / Stephen Brunt.
"Thanks in large part to Gretzky's enormous talent, the Edmonton Oilers won four Stanley Cups. He became hugely popular at home and abroad, a star bigger than the game itself. Then, in 1988, he married Janet Jones, an actress based in Los Angeles, and suddenly #99 may have had new priorities. Gretzky shed tears at the press conference held to announce his trade from the Oilers to the Kings. But he arrived in California all smiles, ready to lift hockey to new heights in the American imagination."--Book jacket.
