I made the move (to #NYR) thinking about this opportunity, to play in the #StanleyCup Final.

New York is a place I wanted to come

I don't know WHEN I'll be big enough to play!

On every level I have played I've heard, `Am I going to perform or not because of my size?' I think I have proved to people I can perform regardless of how big I am.

Sometimes offensive players get turned into defensive players, which sometimes isn't a bad thing, but for me I need a chance to play more offense.

I feel more comfortable confidence-wise. You get to the NHL, and you're nervous about trying things. With experience, you're not as afraid of being creative.

The biggest thing I have learned is you can't take anything for granted. You have to work as hard as you can every night, regardless.
