The more you hesitate in a game, the more your chance of getting hit. Your focus isn't there. When you hesitate, usually you're in trouble.

I don't think you're human if you don't get nervous.

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

Individual honors and scoring championships are great, but my No. 1 goal is to win the Stanley Cup.

When I saw that goal, the first thing I said was, 'You won't see a goal like that ever again.' It's one thing to have second effort but, on top of that, the athleticism he showed. It's just an example of the talent that he has.

I try to stay pretty level-headed and just do what I have to do.

I have been practising since I was 4 or 5 years old, but that wasn't really practice. I was just having fun.... I just loved to play hockey.
