This is more than just a stick—it's a slice of hockey history with a story you'll want to tell for years.

What you're looking at is a genuine game-issued Titan TPM 2020, the iconic model used by Wayne Gretzky during his legendary career. It's signed by the entire 1989 team, with Gretzky's own signature added years later in 1996—and the story behind it is something special.

Here's the backstory:

In '89, when the rest of the team signed the stick, Gretzky refused to sign it—allegedly because Marty McSorley had already signed it and Gretzky had a personal policy about that. Fast forward to 1996: at his own restaurant, Gretzky finally signed it as a favour to a friend. That friend was close to the original owner of the stick—a man I personally know and can introduce you to, so you can hear the full story directly from someone who's family friends with Gretzky himself.

This stick is game-issued—pro-stock and era-correct—but it's being valued as a retail version, stamped “GRETZKY” rather than “W. GRETZKY.” That's how some backup or quickly sourced team sticks were labeled in the late '80s. It's very possible this was one of those sticks—produced for Gretzky or the team, but never taped up or used.
