I don't care what people say about me and what they think about me. I care about my team and I care about myself. Lots of people watch hockey, and I think everybody has different thinking.

I wear tinted visor not to trick other players, but so hot girls in stands don't see me looking at them

I never look forward. I live for today. If you think about what's going to happen in a year, in two years, then you begin to plan. And plans never come true.

My weapon isn't my shot. It's me.

Nobody ever tells me to give them a pass or anything. My job is to score goals, and if I don't shoot the puck, I can't score goals.

I'm okay. Russian machine never breaks.

I want to win, I want to win everything. If I have a chance to win, why not?

If you go to ice and you think, 'I must score' or 'I must get some points,' you won't score or get any points. You must go and play and don't think about it.

Right now I'm scoring goals and I'm the king of the world. And a couple weeks ago I was almost in the toilet. So maybe you just forget to flush me.

My hair was too big. And my head is big, and my hair is big, so my helmet gets too small. So I have to make a haircut.

Hockey is my life, you know. If I do not play hockey, I do not know what I do.

You don't obtain excellence by doing the bare minimum.

Remember Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did but she did it backwards and in high heels.

I don't think there's anything more scary than being forced into doing stand-up comedy.

Negotiations over a shrinking pie are especially difficult because they require an allocation of losses. People tend to be much more easygoing when they bargain over an expanding pie.

I think we have a tendency to support the underdogs.

The mutual confidence on which all else depends can be maintained only by an open mind and a brave reliance upon free discussion.

P.S. - This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

From first to last, the peak is never passed. Something always fires the light that gets in your eyes.

We never fail when we try to do our duty, we always fail when we neglect to do it.

Chess is a matter of daily training.
