Wayne Gretzky Leaving The Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers were eliminated after four straight losses to the Winnipeg Jets these Stanley Cup Playoffs and while there's expected to be changes on the ice, the off ice changes have begun. Wayne Gretzky announced on Tuesday he's stepping away from the Oilers.
Here's the statement from the Great One:

From the sounds of it this has nothing to do with the Oilers themselves and everything to do with what Gretzky plans on doing with the rest of his free time. TNT hockey analyst for 500, Alex.
Wayne Gretzky has been hired by Turner Sports to be an NHL studio analyst. First reported by @AndrewMarchand. Turner is expected to make the announcement official tomorrow. No NHL studio host has been hired yet — and that now becomes a very interesting job.
