All I can say to the young players is, enjoy every moment of it. Just enjoy every moment of it. Your career goes by very quickly.

Certainly we're not satisfied with just winning games. We've been playing some pretty good hockey, but we think we can play much better.

When I'm able to see the ice ahead of time when I get the puck, I'm able to make some pretty good plays.

Since the beginning, I always loved the game.

I have two main reasons for retiring. The first is I can no longer play at a level I was accustomed to in the past. That has been very, very frustrating to me throughout this past year. The second one is realizing my health, along with my family, is the most important thing in the world.

My son, he is the reason I got involved. It's been a joy to be around him and teach him the stuff that I know, and to the other kids as well. When he started playing I wanted to be involved in his hockey career. It's a lot of fun for both of us.

For as long as I can remember I wanted to be a professional hockey player.
