Everybody ticks differently, but family is very important for me.

I'm usually a patient guy anyway.

I love my hockey, but if you can do that and go home and just be a dad and husband, then you have the best of both worlds.

No matter how many years you play, it's always something new and exciting. It's sports, you never know what may happen.

I think that when you are in the limelight it is part of your obligation to be a good role model. A lot of kids look up to you, and you are given a God-given talent, so it is your responsibility. It isn't hard to deal with. I never have to think twice about doing anything.

You change your mind-set, and as long as you've got a good mind-set, you'll know everything is good.

Leaf fans loyalty is unshakeable. The fans keep coming back and it hurts, I have been there. I have lost in game six to go to the finals with the Maple Leafs, against Carolina and what a great final that would have been.
