I don't think there's ever a time where I step back and say I wish I was something different. I'm doing what I love to do.

Love isn't lying, it's loose in a lady who lingers, saying she is lost, and choking on hello.

Challenging someone is good. You need to do it. Sometimes they don't even realize you're doing it, like when you joke with a goalie, 'What's wrong today? You losing it?

It's been really slow obviously, but I'm not worried about that. I feel like from where I was a couple months ago, things are a lot better. Just being able to skate and stuff was encouraging. Hopefully the next step doesn't have any hurdles.

I need to work on defensive play and being consistent.

I want to be the best. So whatever comes with that, I have to accept it.

I've always had a passion for hockey, ... That's the key. You can't be putting in time. You have to enjoy doing what you do.
