If I can be half the hockey player that Bobby Orr was, I'll be happy.
I believe Bobby Orr had the greatest impact of any player to come along in my lifetime. He earned his place in hockey history by single handedly changing the game from the style played in my day. In my mind there can be no greater legacy.
Rocket had that mean look on, every game we played. He was 100 percent hockey. He could hate with the best of them.
Man is that guy ripped. I mean, I've got the washboard stomach, too. It's just that mine has about two months of laundry on top of it.
Writers and books are cheap dates, especially when you compare the cost of a book with a ticket to the opera - or an NHL game.
I don't think you ever stopped Bobby Orr. You contained Bobby Orr, but you never stopped him. When we played the Bruins and Bobby had to give up the puck, it was a good play.
All my career I've gone to teams on the decline. I went to Quebec when they were losing the Stastny brothers. I went to Edmonton after they lost Gretzky and Messier. I went to Anaheim when it was an expansion team. I came to Montreal after they'd won the Cup and were headed down. I was beginning to think it was me.
No, that's not true. I didn't see his place that much, but he's a good kid and I had fun playing with him.
They left us together for a reason. Let's show them why.
My first season Butch Bouchard accidentally sent me to the hospital for three days with a concussion, but I never backed away from Butch or anyone else after I came back.
His face is so calm, He shows no sign of stress or anything. Its as if he's saying, "No problem. Relax. I'm just going to beat you now. It's not going to hurt a bit."
I won't miss him. Maybe the West Edmonton Mall will miss him, but not me.
I love to play for Pittsburgh. If they can't afford me, then I'd love to play in L.A. or New York.
I was young and stupid then. Now I'm not young anymore.
At the end of the day everybody lost. We almost crippled our industry. It was very disappointing what happened.
A complacent player is a lazy player, and a lazy player is a loser.
He's skating like he's 36 again.
It is an immense privilege to be able to play in the NHL. I was very blessed and a lot of things went my way to be able to make it.
What I found interesting about Slava Fetisov was that he went through three different generations of Soviet hockey. In the late 70's, he experienced the Miracle on Ice, and then in the 80's became with his teammates the Russian Five, the most dominant team in the history of hockey, and then helped bring down the hockey system when the Soviet Union collapsed and became one of the first players to play in the NHL, and then ultimately came back to Russia.
I went from junior hockey to the World Junior Championships to the combine and the draft, to the Blackhawks camp, and then a full NHL season and then the World Championships. At nineteen, that's exhausting.
The NHL is the best league in the world, but it's a grind. You sometimes forget, especially if you are losing, or missing the playoffs ... how fun this game can be.
I refuse to confirm or deny anything about any deal to purchase an American NHL franchise and move it to Canada until I've completed all of the paperwork and the deal is closed.
I'm obviously into the sports. The NFL games and the NHL games.
I grew up such a fan. It was my life. Everything I did was hockey related and everything I have is because of hockey and the NHL.
I think the deal is not great for the players. It is definitely an owner-friendly deal.
