I Love Everything About Hockey.

The Only Shot I Always Miss, Is The One I Don't Take!

I Get A Lot Of Parents Coming Up To Me, Telling Me They Are Grooming Their Kids To Be Professional Athletes. I'm Really Against That. I Think It's A Great Life, And Yeah, You Can Lead Them In That Direction. I Think A Lot Of Parents Live Their Lives Through The Kids. Because They Didn't Make It, They Want Their Kids To Make It. It Puts A Lot Of Undue Pressure On The Kids.

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!" .

Hockey Is A Unique Sport In The Sense That You Need Each And Every Guy Helping Each Other And Pulling In The Same Direction To Be Successful.

When People Come Up To Me And Say, "i Was At Your Game 7 In The Playoffs In Toronto," Or, "i Saw Your First Goal In The Nhl," That Triggers Memories. But I Don't Sit Around My Kitchen Table And Tell My Kids, "you Know, One Year I Got 92 Goals."
