Description
Join Ryan as he follows his hockey hero, Wayne Gretzky, down the path to his first Stanley Cup victory.
Ryan loves to play hockey, but he often gets pushed around on the ice because he's small for his age. Ryan has always followed the Edmonton Oilers, and his hero is (of course!) Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky is small too, but he knows how to skate and he knows how to score. Gretzky's great play is helping to get the Oilers to the Stanley Cup Finals. Inspired by Gretzky's example, Ryan learns that hard work and determination can help you overcome almost any obtacle.
