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

It's more frustrating. My expectation probably wasn't that I'd play [during the playoffs], but I was just trying to make sure that if there was any chance that it was possible to come back that I was ready and that I'd done everything I could to be ready. It's frustrating, disappointing. But can't really control any of that.

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.

I want to reward this city. Pittsburgh is a great hockey town.

Wouldn’t it be amazing, getting up everyday and playing; doing something that you love to do?

People are going to have their opinions. Whether it's good or bad, I don't really think about it either way.

Breakaway goals are fun.
