If We're Going To Change The Game It Has To Start At Eight, Nine And 10 Years Old. When We Were That Age We'd Go To The Pond Or Backyard Rink And Throw A Puck On The Ice And Play Five On Five, Or Seven On Seven. You Get This Creativity And This Imagination That Comes From Within, Just Having Fun On The Pond. Now Kids Are So Focused On Team Play, And The Coaches Are So Focused On Positioning. You Can't Change It At The Nhl Level.

But In My Mind, I Don't Think There's Any Question Sidney Crosby Is The Best All-around Player In The Game. His Hockey Sense Is So Strong And So Solid, Combined With His God-gifted Talent Of Being Able To See The Ice, See The Entire Picture In Front Of Him. And, Most Importantly, I Don't Care How Good You Are, If You Don't Have A Work Ethic, It Doesn't Matter. There's No Question That Each And Every Game, He's One Of The Hardest-working Guys On The Ice. In My Mind, He's The Best Player In The Game Today.

If I Had To Pick Three Players To Start A Franchise, I'd Choose Hasek, Peter Forsberg And Eric Lindros.
