My kids are no different than anyone else's - they tend to disagree with everything I say!

If I had to pick three players to start a franchise, I'd choose Hasek, Peter Forsberg and Eric Lindros.

By no means could I play at the level of these kids who play in the NHL now but as 50-year-olds go, I feel really good and I feel blessed that I'm still healthy.

The 2002 (Olympic) team was a great team, we won the gold medal, they deserved all the accolades that they got. But this team seems to have a little more depth and maybe a little more talent to pick from. So it makes the job of picking the right 23 guys even more difficult.

I heard people say, 'Why would he want to do this?' My answer is 'Why not?' It is what I love. It's what I know.

I have recall. I don't know why or how. I had a guy once who said he played against me in novice [league, for kids under nine], for the Detroit Lasers. And I said, "Oh yeah, we beat you in the tournament, 8-1 and I think I scored seven goals, and the goalie was left-handed." And he was, "Oh my God. I was the goalie!" .

It's just amazing how many companies suddenly want you to hold up their products after you've held up the Stanley Cup.
