In this scenario Gretzky is in his prime but in today's league. In the ACGM he is taking up %17 of the Salary Cap.

I doubt he's still in game shape, but I'm sure any team he asked would gladly offer a PTO.

Gretzky, Coffey, Kurri, Anderson and Messier were all around same age, all 79/80 draft picks. Would have been hard to keep all in cap era.

Another interesting question would be how much Crosby’s contract would be if he were younger and signed today?

I think Gretzky would get the max deal if he were 21. And he'd be worth every penny.
