The 40th National Hockey League
All-Star Game
was held in the Northlands Coliseum in Edmonton, Alberta, home to the Edmonton Oilers
, on February 7, 1989.
to the Los Angeles Kings
, a move that shocked many Canadians, but allowed the NHL to expand into new American markets. As Gretzky was a no-brainer to be a starter due to the fan-balloting process, the game was highly touted as Gretzky's return to Edmonton (despite the Kings having faced the Oilers in Edmonton earlier in the season). To this extent, even Campbell conference coach Glen Sather
reserved Gretzky's old stall in the Oilers' dressing room, and he played on the line with then-current linemate Luc Robitaille
and former linemate Jari Kurri
. Gretzky was warmly welcomed in Edmonton, and for his part, scored a goal and two assists and earning the ceremonial car as the game's MVP (which he promptly gave to friend and former linemate Dave Semenko
).
Gretzky himself arrived in Edmonton a week early, with wife Janet and seven-week-old daughter Paulina

s that he had bought before being traded. In comparison, Mario Lemieux
, who was perennially being compared to Gretzky, had only a single assist and was a -4 in plus/minus ranking. What was interesting, however, was that Lemieux, who was on pace to shatter Gretzky's record of 215 points, was the star in the previous year's game
and would be the star in next year's game
