I'm not playing for lack of options. But this is such a fleeting thing. When I'm done, I'm never, ever going to be able to come back to it. I know Vancouver is my last go.

The more I've done work with the IOC the more I've come to realize I'm really excited about this, the work that I'm doing and the impact that I can have if I'm fully committed to it.

I have enough muscle already. Now I want to use it in more efficient ways.

When you look back from your Olympic experience, you never want to question whether you could have done more. The one thing you can control is your off-ice preparation.

I look at myself, and how much I've gotten just because I play a sport well.

Right now, I'm standing behind the glass, and I guess that's a metaphor for how my life will be going forward.

I'm in the perfect position. It's a sports position and a political position where I can help better the lives of athletes around the world.
