I look forward to a lot more free time, at least initially, with my wife, Lisa, and our three children.

We have two tables on our airplane that are set up with the games.

As a kid in British Columbia, going back a long way, I learned to skate.

I consider the Detroit Red Wings one of the greatest franchises in any sport. For a player to come in and play, it's so special to wear the jersey.

I don't know if I've ever had a memorable body check. It's not really part of my game.

I'm very confident my health isn't going to allow me to be a good player, especially in the spring.

It's almost like you see too much, because when it happens for real, everything flies at you so fast, you never get a sense of the ice and where everyone is at that one moment.
