My dad introduced me to the game, gave me a stick. Since then I've had a passion for it.

When someone screams at me to hurry up, I slow down.

I think we have to show some pride in the jersey that we are wearing, and can’t quit.

Play without fear, and you will be successful.

Every day is a great day for hockey.

I want to be the best player possible.

It's really football, tennis, and golf that I watch other than hockey.

I need to work on defensive play and being consistent.

It didn't feel like it was anything too major, but if you had to look at one hit that would be it.

I'm most comfortable definitely when I'm on the ice. I love to play. It's something that I just love to do.

I want to reward this city. Pittsburgh is a great hockey town.

Teach your parents well.

Breakaway goals are fun.

I always wanted to be the best and to get the most out of myself.

Growing up in Canada, I didn't watch football much.

It's not that hard to stay grounded. It's the way I was brought up.

I try to stay pretty level-headed and just do what I have to do.

The best way for me to lead is through my game.

People are going to have their opinions. Whether it's good or bad, I don't really think about it either way.
