Terenity Gretzky
Terenity Gretzky, the grandfather of hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, was born in the 1890s in what is now the Brest region of Belarus. He emigrated to Canada in the early 20th century, where he became a pivotal figure in his family's legacy, supporting his grandson Wayne's burgeoning hockey career. Terenity's roots and heritage have been acknowledged by Wayne, who reflects on how his grandfather would be proud of the achievements of fellow Russian player Alexander Ovechkin, especially as Ovechkin recently matched Wayne's long-standing record for the most goals scored in NHL history.
