Wayne Gretzky Makes Shocking Comment on Adam Johnson's Death

Adam Johnson's tragic passing has been on the hearts and minds of the hockey world since the weekend, but unfortunately, some personalities around the sport have made some less than ideal comments on the situation.

On the latest edition of NHL on TNT, the topic of Johnson's tragic passing came up, and unfortunately, Wayne Gretzky, one of the greatest players in NHL history made a questionable comment.

During their comments, Gretzky called it a 'so-called' accident, and given the feeling around the tragic situation, it's just such an unnecessary thing to say.

Given the rise of questionable comments around the situation on social media, this type of comment from Gretzky could give credence to those idiotic comments, making this even worse.

With the emotion around the situation for everyone on the ice and the player on the other end of the accident, it's just not necessary, so it's likely that we could see a comment from TNT or Gretzky ahead of their next broadcast.
