My mother and dad played the fiddle and the guitar.

To me, hockey was always tremendous fun. That's what kept me going for so long. I simply love to play hockey.

I always tell kids, you have two eyes and one mouth. Keep two open and one closed. You never learn anything if you're the one talking.

People say I'm henpecked. Well, let them say it.

Overall I can fairly safely say Bobby Orr impressed me more than anybody with his tremendous talents. In Bobby's first N.H.L. game he layed the lumber to Gordie's head. Later Howe retalliated and wanted to let the kid know he wasn't washed up yet.

If Colleen Howe had been a hockey player, she would have been a centremen. I can see her as a centreman because you can do what you want and go wherever you want to go.

All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity.
