"(It's) an LA Story. It's about a meandering franchise suddenly becoming one of the hottest tickets in sports thanks to a single athlete."
That's what Greg Wyshynski of Yahoo Sports wrote about the mini-film / documentary when he originally reviewed it last year.
By now you know the high level points - Wayne Gretzky, Marty McSorley and Mike Krushelnyski were traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the Los Angeles Kings for $15 million in cash and three of LA's 1st round draft picks (1989, 1991, and 1993).
Here, you'll see detailed information about how the trade happened, why it happened and the moments when it almost fell apart. Former Kings owner Bruce McNall, former Oilers owner Peter Pocklington and Gretzky himself offer up vivid details of the event that will forever be remembered as 'the trade' in hockey, perhaps all of sports.
