The Great One is back where his legend was created.Wayne Gretzky was named Wednesday as partner and vice chairman of the Oilers Entertainment Group, the parent company of the Edmonton Oilers, which he led to four Stanley Cups in the 1980s.Gretzky last month was hired by the NHL to act as an official ambassador during the leagues centennial year celebration.Ive had opportunities over the last three, four or five years to be involved in the NHL, Gretzky said. I chose to step back and take my time. We felt like this was a really great opportunity for me to get back in the game and do what we all want to do: win a Stanley Cup. Im privileged and proud to be back as an Oiler.Now hes back working with an NHL team for the first time since he stepped down as head coach of the Arizona Coyotes in September 2009.Im nervous for a hockey game tonight, Gretzky joked when speaking with ESPN. Its been a while!Bob Nicholson, the CEO of the Oilers Entertainment Group, had a longstanding relationship with Gretzky dating back to when he was president of Hockey Canada and named The Great One executive director of Team Canada for the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, the 2004 World Cup of Hockey and the 2006 Torino Games.Gretzky also has a good relationship with Oilers owner Daryl Katz and there has long been speculation that some form of role for Gretzky would eventually happen in Edmonton.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Floridas Jim McElwain made Southeastern Conference history by becoming the first coach to reach the leagues championship game in his first two seasons.Hes 13-3 in SEC play, has swept rival Georgia and pushed the Gators to start making strides to improve their football facilities.It is hardly enough, at least not in Gainesville.As the 15th-ranked Gators (8-3) head to Atlanta to face top-ranked Alabama (12-0) for the second straight year, McElwain is getting more criticism than acclaim. Florida looked overmatched in a 31-13 loss at Florida State last Saturday, failing to score an offensive touchdown for the second time in as many years in the series. And McElwain, hired to fix Floridas floundering offense, has come up well short and offered nothing more than a glimpse of anything resembling Steve Spurriers Fun `n Gun that dominated the league throughout most of the 1990s.The Gators currently rank 114th in the nation in total offense, down two spots from 2015 while averaging a meager 352.7 yards a game. And they easily could drop after facing the Tides top-ranked defense Saturday.I dont look at it as a mismatch at all, McElwain said Monday. I look at it as a great opportunity, and you know thats part of the chess match. ... I know this: Were playing in this game and were going to give ourselves every opportunity to be successful.Florida was somewhat competitive in last years title game.The Gators returned a punt for a touchdown early and trailed 12-7 at halftime before Alabama pulled away and won 29-15 . Florida finished with 180 yards, the fewest of McElwains tenure. Quarterback Treon Harris got the brunt of the blame for that stinker as well as Floridas late-season slide.There havent been nearly as many excuses this year.McElwain started two transfer quarterbacks (Luke Del Rio and Austin Appleby) over two freshmen he recruited (Feleipe Franks and Kyle Trask). It seemed justifiable before the season, but looked highly questionable once it became clear Del Rio and Appleby have flaws.Thee Gators have thrown for fewer than 150 yards in four of their last seven games, and havent topped 230 yards passing in more than two months.dddddddddddd think weve done it throughout the season in glimpses and spurts, Appleby said. The key for us is going to be to the consistency. We cant shoot ourselves in the foot. We cant have negative plays. Weve got to stay on schedule and keep working. ... We know we can do it.Now its just about doing it time and time again, and thats that mental endurance thing. Thats playing for each other, trusting in the plan, not making stuff up, and just executing the plan.Consistency hasnt been Floridas offensive forte under McElwain. Consider this: The Gators have been held below 275 yards of offense in 10 of their last 17 games. And its not like theyre playing some of the nations top defense every week. In fact, eight of Floridas 11 opponents have defenses that rank 63rd or worse.So it would surprise no one to see McElwain make wholesale offensive changes after the bowl game, including firing coordinator Doug Nussmeier, line coach Mike Summers and maybe others.In the meantime, the Gators can celebrate another SEC East title, with no mention that its widely considered the worst division in the Power Five conferences. The East is 11-33 against the West over the last three years.Florida has merely managed to be better than the rest in a watered-down division, good enough to put McElwain in the record books but not enough to silence detractors who question whether a guy who once said he could win with his dog at quarterback has made Florida any better offensively after 25 games.Its obviously one of those things that you have to constantly evaluate and get better at, McElwain said. I was also brought in here to get to Atlanta. How many years have I been here?
