Whenever you trade away a key piece of your organization, somebody who's been there for a long time, it has to change everything.

I think I was the worst loser of all time. I couldn't stand it.

It's insane to really think about, someone is going to pay me $100 million to do what I would do anyway on a regular day; it's insane.

It's always tough when you're off the ice for a while when you've got to come back because you can't replicate the type of cardio that you need to play hockey and you can't really replicate skating at all. You can run as many stairs, or bike as many whatever on your spin bike as you want, but you can't replicate it at all.

After going through the playoffs, you definitely get a sense for how important it is to go through it at least once before you win.

I definitely still work on my skating a lot.

Every little muscle is so important.

You want to win hockey games, and it doesn't really matter how you do it.

Just got to win games. You've just got to find ways to win games.

I don't think you're going to see any hockey player tell the media or anyone they're the best player in the world. It's just not who we are.

Any time you give up two shorthanded goals, you're not usually going to win.

I definitely believe in myself. And I don't need to show that on the outside. I just don't feel like I need to tell people how I feel about myself. I know my skills and I know what I'm comfortable in, and I keep it to myself.

Not a lot of people get to meet their role model and idol in life, and I've been really lucky that way.

My style was not good. It's definitely something that's grown over time.

It's more fun to be playing hockey than doing anything else.

To try to prey on athletes' livelihoods while one is going through a tough time is embarrassing to me.

Thankfully, God blessed me with some legs that move pretty good, and we also get to wear pads, so I should be alright.

People are terrified of them to the point where Trump wants to ban all Muslims from coming here, which is ridiculous.

Unless you're being carted off, you should be on the field.

What other people think of how I play and how I go about things really isn't something I worry about.

I'm not too big on feelings.

I trained with a few Olympic runners and jumpers. Just to try to get a little bit faster, a little bit better. Anything I could do to try to get a little bit better and stay ahead of the competition.

Training, that's my specialty.

At the end of the day, you have to look at, 'Are they knowledgeable? Are they doing their job?' Not what their appearance is.
