I'll Be The First One To Admit

I Realize There Will Not Be Another Gretzky, And I Will Be The First One To Say I Will Not Break His Records, .. But For Him To Say That I Could, It Means I Am Doing Something Right. It Was Probably The Best Compliment I Could Get. I'm Going To Remember It.

I Was Anxious To Get Started, There Was So Much Anticipation. I Wanted To Get In The Routine Of Playing Games. It Was Just Nice To Be On A Team, Not Competing Against These Guys In Camp [but] Trying To Work Together To Win.

It Is So Important To Me To Have My Time Away From Hockey. Obviously, Hockey Is My Passion; I Love It. But Definitely For Me, Time Away From The Rink And Time When My Mind Isn't Thinking About Hockey Is Important.

I Am Doing What I Love To Do.

I Want To Be The Best Player Possible.
