In a hypothetical ice hockey shootout between Justin Trudeau and Wayne Gretzky, the clear winner would be Wayne Gretzky. Known as "The Great One," Gretzky's hockey prowess is legendary, with records that stand as testaments to his unparalleled skill on the ice. His experience spans decades of professional play, where he honed his ability to score in high-pressure situations like shootouts. Gretzky's understanding of goaltenders, his creativity in shooting, and his unmatched precision would give him a significant edge in such a one-on-one contest.
 

On the other side, Justin Trudeau, while an enthusiastic hockey player, operates at an amateur level. Trudeau has been seen engaging in hockey for fun and charity events, showcasing his love for the sport but not at a professional level. His skills, while commendable for someone not playing professionally, wouldn't compare to Gretzky's. In a shootout, where individual skill, deception, and quick thinking are paramount, Trudeau would lack the nuanced gameplay that Gretzky has mastered over a lifetime in the NHL.
 

Even in a casual or charity setting, the dynamics of a shootout would heavily favor Gretzky. His ability to read the play, anticipate the goalie's moves, and execute with both power and finesse would likely result in Gretzky scoring with regularity. Trudeau might bring some surprises or fun moments to the event, but when it comes down to pure hockey skill in a shootout scenario, Gretzky's legacy and experience would make the outcome nearly a foregone conclusion.
