Sources Say Gretzky Didn’t Know About Gambling

Alan Hahn from Newsday is reporting that most sources are saying Gretzky didn’t find out about soon-to-come the gambling scandal until very recently and that the wiretaps confirm that.  More on the source from CBC.

The Arizona Republic has a story about Gretzky and the Coyotes getting tired of the leaks to the media and “inaccurate” sources.

ESPN Motion has a video recap of last night’s Coyotes loss and how it was overshadowed by the wiretaps.

Update 500pm: Some more multimedia from ESPN:

From Mike & Mike in the Morning: Roger Cossack - “Our legal analyst helps us understand the NHL gambling scandal. He explains how Grand Jury testimonials, which are supposed to be private, are leaked to the press. He also explains to us the Roenick affidavit.”

Also from Mike & Mike in the Morning: Did JR Gamble? - “Jeremy Roenick will give an affidavit to New Jersey authorities investigating the NHL gambling scandal.”

From Cold Pizza: Rick Tocchet’s Attorney Upset with Prosecutors - “Kevin Marino denies all charges”

Update 1130pm: Fox Sports video: Gretzky heads to Turin - “Coyotes head coach Wayne Gretzky puts the NHL gambling scandal behind him, promising that it won’t distract the Canadian Olympic team’s hopes to repeat as gold medalists.”
