Growing up, sports was my outlet, my way to portray a personality. I was very shy around people but, through sports, something I was good at, I was able to make friends. ”

Hopefully, my teammates will say that I was important and that I gave it everything and I didn't leave anything to chance my whole career. To be mentioned as Hall-worthy is a great thing. ”

There's no way I would have thought I would have had the career that I did and the longevity. Absolutely no idea. ”

Wins are the most important measure for goalies, I think. Certainly it's a great accomplishment. ”

I'd recommend the high road to anybody. You wonder about it and you don't really appreciate it until you do it and you find that it worked for everyone. But I recommend it. ”

Anytime you've played in a place and you get a win against your old team, it feels good. ”

Like most parents, I want everything for my kids that I didn't have. But I don't intend to spoil them. I just enjoy everything that comes naturally with parenthood. ”

I'm so busy right now, it's the beginning of the hockey season for my kids. ”

A happy player is a good player, I think. ”

I love my hockey, but if you can do that and go home and just be a dad and husband, then you have the best of both worlds. ”
