You Miss 100% Of The Shots You

I Wasn't A Great Skater And I Needed My Skates To Be Perfect - Really Tight Around The Ankles. But I Couldn't Break In New Ones Because My Feet Would Hurt So Much. I Wore A Size 9 Shoe And A 6.5 Skate - My Foot Was Really Crunched.

And People Who Know Me Would Tell You That Away From Hockey I'm Really Not That Competitive.

I Have Absolutely No Complaints About My Life. But People Think I Got Handed Everything, All This Kind Of Fell In My Lap, That I Was Just God-gifted With All This Talent. I Wanted People To Realize It's A Lot Tougher Than Just Waking Up One Day And You're In The Nhl.

You Know, I've Held Women And Babies And Jewels And Money, But Nothing Will Ever Feel As Good As Holding That Cup.

Your Friends, Family, And Kids Have To Understand That's Your Priority. It's The Only Way You Can Be Successful.
