I was working on the farm to get in shape, about a mile away from my parents. You know, I did everything as a kid to stay in shape - jogging, work on the farm, driving the tractor. I'll never forget.

The day you hear someone call me captain will be the day I buy a boat.

I realized that my family was more important to me than downtown night life.

Go ahead, work hard and never be afraid to try something. Even if you don't make it, at least you can say you tried.

Anyway, I've never been captain in 16 years in the NHL. But that didn't stop me being a leader in my own way.

I would compare that to when I first started with the Montreal Canadiens; it was a big family then, where the guys really stuck together and worked like a unit. But when I came back in '88, it was not like that anymore.

The crowd doesn't give a crap as long as you bring the money in.

Well, it's always nice to know the fans didn't forget what you did when you played in the NHL.

A lot of the players are not involved with any NHL team, so to play and travel around with the Oldtimers' it's a kind of gift that the players really appreciate.

The colors I choose there was to paint the first hotel, the Disneyland Hotel. Because of the cloudy sky we had in Paris, it had to be a particular kind of color who will fight those grey days. And also something you can see when you're driving up 'There it is! We're arriving!'

Certain people in the United States are driving nails into this structure of our relationship, then cutting off the heads. So the Soviets must use their teeth to pull them out.

Baseball is like driving, it's the one who gets home safely that counts.

I think it's important that people think about what they are doing and that includes what they are eating.
