The biggest thing for me is the passion that I've always had for hockey. I remember growing up, no matter what I did in life, my parents always told me to try to do my best at it and be my best. I can say going through different things that passion is the most important part. It's not skills or talent or any of that stuff.

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

I am putting pressure on myself to do my best and perform to my potential.

I'll be the first one to admit my first couple of years I was pretty hard on the refs.

I think that everyone has an equal right to play and I think we've been supportive of that. With the Olympics and the controversy around that I think those decisions and those laws aren't necessarily something that I agree with personally ... their laws and their views.

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