(Reuters) - Walter Gretzky, who recognized his son Wayne’s prodigious talent and helped shape him into the National Hockey League’s all-time leading scorer, has died aged 82.
His death was confirmed on Twitter by Wayne, who said his dad had battled Parkinson’s disease and other health issues over the last few years.
“For my sister and my 3 brothers, Dad was our team captain - he guided, protected and led our family every day, every step of the way,” 60-year-old Wayne wrote on Twitter.

Blockchain sports firm Chiliz to invest $50 million in U.S expansion

MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Blockchain sports venture Chiliz, which is heavily involved in European soccer, will invest $50 million in an expansion to the United States, chief executive Alexandre Dreyfus has told Reuters.
The company based in Malta offers tokens to fans which allow them to vote in a series of polls and receive special promotions and rewards, creating what it calls a “new digital revenue stream” for sports organisations through engagement with global fan bases.
The fan tokens are listed on Binance, one of the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchanges, and last week Serie A club AC Milan became the latest team to launch their token, generating $6 million of revenue in the first day.
