Maybe it wasn't the talent the Lord gave me-maybe it was the passion.

I can remember hockey. It was my life, my passion. It's what I love the most.

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

Your friends, family, and kids have to understand that's your priority. It's the only way you can be successful.

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.

The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.

As a player, you have one responsibility, to focus yourself and be ready for the game. As a coach, your responsibility is to get 20 guys ready and have them all on the same page. If you can't get every guy ready every night, you're going to struggle.
