And people who know me would tell you that away from hockey i'm really not that competitive.
It's really hard. and it's harder today because of the salary cap. it starts in september at training camp - getting every guy on the same page, being as mentally and physically as focused as you can be. then in april and may, you basically spend eight weeks practising, watching video and playing games. that's your life.
But in my mind, i don't think there's any question sidney crosby is the best all-around player in the game. his hockey sense is so strong and so solid, combined with his god-gifted talent of being able to see the ice, see the entire picture in front of him. and, most importantly, i don't care how good you are, if you don't have a work ethic, it doesn't matter. there's no question that each and every game, he's one of the hardest-working guys on the ice. in my mind, he's the best player in the game today.
When emotions are high, things are said, things are done. ultimately, these players want to play. i know too many of them love the game too much.
I have recall. i don't know why or how. i had a guy once who said he played against me in novice [league, for kids under nine], for the detroit lasers. and i said, "oh yeah, we beat you in the tournament, 8-1 and i think i scored seven goals, and the goalie was left-handed." and he was, "oh my god. i was the goalie!" .
The 2002 (olympic) team was a great team, we won the gold medal, they deserved all the accolades that they got. but this team seems to have a little more depth and maybe a little more talent to pick from. so it makes the job of picking the right 23 guys even more difficult.
I knew at a young age, whether i was playing baseball or hockey or lacrosse, that my teammates were counting on me, whether it be to strike the last batter out in a baseball game or score a big goal in a hockey game.
I just like to keep my money in the bank; i'm not a big risk-taker. i don't know anything about the stock market... i stay away from things i don't know anything about.
My answer is, why not? ... it's what i love, it's what i know. glen sather was the best coach that i had and what made him good was his confidence in what he did. i believe that i'm going to be a good coach.
I'm very proud of our nhl players. i think they all handle themselves extremely well and they all work really hard.
Listen, everything i have in my life is because of the nhl and because of hockey, and i love the game and i loved every minute of being a player, i loved coaching, i loved being involved in the nhl.
We feel fortunate [with canada hockey team]. we have got a lot of guys who love to play, but they also love to win even more. we are pretty happy. although we are young, we like our group of players.
