There are no environments where you're only going to win, because life just isn't like that.

Everyone should have the same opportunity, and in many areas that's not the case because programs are built around the elite.

You never know how a single interaction with a person might affect their life, so you must constantly try to be at your best.

The biggest thing we get out of it is seeing the kids smile. And hopefully we will also see that the lessons we're teaching - not only the fundamentals of hockey, but also the life values - are sinking in.

Hockey is a tough game. With all the talk and everything that's going on right now, it frightens me a little bit that we are giving our players an excuse not to hit. I just hope that we don't take that out of our game at the pro level.

I couldn't wait to get on the ice. I couldn't wait to get to practice. As a kid I couldn't wait to shoot pucks or play in parking lots, or play on the river or play on the bay.

Forget about style; worry about results.
