FORT MCMURRAY, Alta. – Here are a few of the items from Shawn Chaulk’s remarkable collection of game-used Wayne Gretzky memorabilia:

— The jersey Gretzky was wearing when teammate Steve Smith scored on his own net in a division final in April 1985 against the Calgary Flames. The Oilers lost the game and were eliminated from the Stanley Cup playoffs (to be included in later auction).

— The jersey he wore when he scored his 500th goal in a game against the Vancouver Canucks in November 1986. It was a three-goal evening for the Great One, the 500th into an empty net. He also wore the jersey in the playoffs the following spring (in the auction).

— A puck from the first NHL game for both Gretzky and the Edmonton Oilers on Oct. 10, 1979, against the Chicago Black Hawks. The Hawks won 4-2 (in the auction).
