I'm very impatient. I am. That's the bane of my game. I don't think about what I'm going to do - I just go hit it, I don't stop to wait and think. Costs me two shots a round.
Hockey is its own game. It's completely different than all the other games, although it's getting way too close to soccer.
I am 10 times smarter than everyone else in this game. Beyond a shadow of a doubt.
I see myself playing as long as I am partially enjoying the game and partially successful and they are paying me. But honestly, two more years is about all I can take.
I think the biggest thing for me is being able to adjust to the way the game has changed. It's basically a 180-degree turn from the style I like to play. That's what I think I'm most proud of, being able to fit into this style of game and still be fairly successful.
You know what? I don't care. I'm my own guy. I'm very secure with my sexuality. I can cry anytime I want.
I don't like hockey. I'm just good at it.
My son's 8 he loves his skateboarding and his bike and his snowboard.
I'm scared to death to fly commercial I have not flown commercial since 9/11.
Do I catch flak because I'm so much smarter than everyone else? I don't know.
You have to know how to score.
You know what, I had 11 great years with St. Louis. My gosh, those are the best years of my life. And I will never, ever forget that.
I am very proud to align myself with Miken - a brand known as an innovator and leader in the development of high performance sports equipment.
You know what? I did! I impressed myself just making it.
