The day I stop giving is the day I stop receiving. The day I stop learning is the day I stop growing. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

When I broke into professional hockey at 17 I was told that I was too small and too slow and I wouldn't make the NHL. Now it's kind of flip-flopped and the sense is I can't be a good coach because I was a great athlete.

Hockey is my life. I love every minute of it.

Good players skate to the puck. Great players skate to where the puck is going to be.

You miss every shot you don't take.

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

I think sports for kids is the greatest thing in the world because it teaches you how to share, about winning and losing and pressure. But I don't think you should force your kid to become a professional athlete.
