The only way a kid is going to practice is if it’s total fun for him… and it was for me.

I wasn’t naturally gifted in terms of size and speed; everything I did in hockey I worked for, and that’s the way I’ll be as a coach.

I don’t like my hockey sticks touching other sticks, and I don’t like them crossing one another, and I kind of have them hidden in the corner. I put baby powder on the ends. I think it’s essentially a matter of taking care of what takes care of you.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.

A good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.

Procrastination is one of the most common and deadliest of diseases and its toll on success and happiness is heavy.

The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.
