It's not that hard to stay grounded. It's the way I was brought up.

I think every athlete will tell you no matter what sport you're in, when you train so hard and when you care so much about doing what you do, there's a little bit of nerves that come with that. But nerves that won't prevent you form performing, nerves that, hopefully, allow you to be that much more motivated and inspired to do well.

For every whack I've given, I've gotten four or five.

I am doing what I love to do.

My dad introduced me to the game, gave me a stick. Since then I've had a passion for it.

Breakaway goals are fun.

I'd never complain about the attention - ever. I feel very fortunate to be doing what I love to do. Not everyone gets that chance every day. This is just part of it, and it comes down to managing my time to make sure I concentrate on my passion, which is the hockey, and have time away from hockey.
