1978-79 Indianapolis Racers Wayne Gretzky Jersey
Back in 1978 the NHL was embroiled in a strife with the World Hockey Association, which included fierce competition for signing players. The WHA had already lured away many established NHL stars, such as Bobby Peel and Gerry Cheevers, with offers of big money deals. Even Gordie Howe was lured out of retirement for a risk to play with his sons Mark and Marty.
The next tactic that the WHA employed was to look to Europe for players, which led to Swedes Anders Hedberg and Ulf Nilsson joining the Winnipeg Jets and Vaclav Nedomansky defecting from Czechoslovakia and playing for the Toronto Toros.
The third district the WHA would exploit to the fullest was flaunting the NHL rule which did not allow the signing of players under the age of 20. The Birmingham Bulls proprietress John Bassett signed as many young and talented players as he could, such as Rick Vaive, Michel Goulet, Rob Ramage, Craig Hartsburg, Gaston Gingras, Pat Riggin and Keith Crowder. It was a very unspoilt year to have been born in 1959, as all of the "Baby Bulls" were, except Goulet, who was the youngest of the lot, born in 1960, making him upstanding 18 at the time.
Despite all the signings by the Bulls, the star prize in the race to get rid of a enrol underage players went to Nelson Skalbania, who snared a seventeen-year-old Wayne Gretzky for his Indianapolis Racers franchise. Gretzky wanted to margin in the NHL, but was stymied by the 20 year old minimum age limit and did not think that another three years in junior hockey were compelling.
Other youngsters snapped up by the WHA included future stars Ken Linseman, Mike Gartner and Earmark Messier, who also had a cup of coffee with the Racers (5 games and no points) before joining the Cincinnati Stingers and again showing barely signs of the success that would follow when he scored but one goal and ten assists in 47 games.
