It was tough. It was easy on the ice, but it was difficult otherwise. I had to learn everything. Guys on the team helped me a lot. The organization was real good and took real good care of me. I brought all my bills to an assistant in the general manager's office. I learned a lot.

He's a terrific player. He's tricky. He makes a lot of plays. He makes that team a lot better. Him being out of their lineup works to our advantage.

I definitely would like to stay here. I like the city, I've played on this team for a long while and I've got a lot of friends here. It would make sense to stay here. . . . We talked a few times about a long-term deal, but it just never got off the ground. We left on pretty good terms. The door is still open.

It's very easy to learn. And very difficult to master.

A load of cinematic effects that otherwise seem easy or cheap to me suddenly become difficult again... can't you hear that this is the only right way of doing it?

Forgiving was the hardest thing. Sometimes forgiving was the hardest thing in the whole world.
