Wayne Gretzky was never drafted into the NHL. In 1978 he was signed to the Indianapiolas Racers of the WHA (World Hockey Assosication). He was soon after traded to the Edmonton Oilers, which were then also part of the WHA. In 1979, the WHA folded and the Oilers transferred to the NHL. Most players were sent into the entry draft, but due to a specialty in his contract, Gretzky enjoyed the luxury of staying with the Oilers. Gretzky was also never drafted into the WHA. The NHL regulations say no team can sign a player under 20 years old. The WHA allowed this, so Gretzky just signed with the Racers instead of being drafted.

No. Wayne Gretzky played his minor hockey in Brantford, which is part of what is now known as Alliance Hockey. Gretzky's family moved to Toronto, and Wayne played for the Toronto Nationals, but the team was a Jr. B organization at the time, not a GTHL organization which it is now. The Jr. B league Gretzky played in is most comparable to the OJHL.
