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.

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.

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

You want to be the guy who makes an impact in every game. In this sport it's all about results-winning games and making the playoffs.

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

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've spent every game I've ever played making sure I'm out-working the other guy.
