How many career regular-season points (goals plus assists) did Wayne Gretzky score in the NHL?

Answer

2,857 points

Gretzky's lead is so absurd that if you deleted all 894 of his goals, his 1,963 assists alone would still make him the NHL's all-time points leader. Nobody else in history has reached 2,000 points.
