I think I always just want to get better at whatever Im doing... Always strive for excellence.

As a hockey player, playing for an Original Six team at Madison Square Garden, where its packed every night, theres nothing like it.

You want to play in every game, and you especially don't want to be in the penalty box for five minutes and give the other team a chance to get a power play, and you don't want to hurt anyone on the other team.

I had more friends on my hockey team than I did on my soccer team. I might have been better at soccer, to be honest. But I think it was more the friendship, and my family was more of a hockey family than a soccer family, so when I had to make a decision, I tried hockey, and it turned out to be a good decision.
