Edmonton mayor wants to name old Oilers arena after Wayne Gretzky

Edmonton mayor Don Iveson is pushing to name the Edmonton Coliseum after Wayne Gretzky, according to The Canadian Press.

The Coliseum was the home of the Oilers up until this season, when the team opened the brand-new, $600-million Rogers Place in the city's downtown core.

The old arena, which resides on Wayne Gretzky Drive, is in the process of being transformed into a sports complex for the public.
