“Scoring 500 goals is something I never dreamed of when I came to the NHL.”

“It was a big moment for our country. We were a small country, and we won the world championship. It was unbelievable.”

“Every year you have to prove yourself. You can't just live on your name.”

“It's always nice to score a goal, but it's better when you win.”

“Speed was my biggest weapon. I tried to use it every shift.”

“The fans in Washington were always great to me and my family. It's a special place.”

“When you get a chance, you have to bury it.”
