So here I am running at guys who aren't taller than 5-foot-8, and I'm the one who tears up his knee.

I'm 100 percent sure this is it. I know that I'll never play in the NHL again. It's not a hard decision. I think the hardest thing is you get a little emotional talking about your family. I couldn't have played any longer than I did and I accomplished what I wanted to.

Guys like him ruin it for everybody else. It's just embarrassing. Or maybe he's not embarrassed because he probably believes he's not doing it-that's how liars are.

When no one else signs me.

It takes brains. It's not like a forward, where you can get away with scoring and not play defense. On defense you have to be thinking.
