Another Saturday afternoon at Gretzky’s in the heart of Toronto, another edition of “Live From Wayne Gretzky’s”, the best hockey talk on the radio dial.  James Cybulski of TSN and co-host Bob McGill welcomed in Ken Holland, the general manager of the Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings.

It was Holland’s second appearance on the stage at Gretzky’s.  During the first year of the program (2003-04), he also dropped by the show to talk hockey.  Holland began his NHL career as a goaltender, getting into a game with the Hartford Whalers, and three games with the Red Wings.  The Penticton, B.C. native became GM of Detroit in 1997, and has since steered them to three Stanley Cups, and a consistently competitive team.
