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

When emotions are high, things are said, things are done. Ultimately, these players want to play. I know too many of them love the game too much.

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 don't think any one person will ever be bigger than the game.

Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest of diseases and its toll on success and happiness is heavy.

It doesn't matter what I think. It doesn't matter what other people think. You have to get on the ice and participate and play and the best team wins.

You know, I've held women and babies and jewels and money, but nothing will ever feel as good as holding that Cup.
