Wayne Gretzky stood at center ice in the building he made famous Wednesday night and saluted the fans. ''My gosh, I wish we could be out there and play for them again but we can't do it anymore,'' Gretzky said to cheers from thousands of supporters - most clad in orange, blue and white team jerseys - in a tribute ceremony to mark the final Oilers game at Rexall Place.
