The legs feed the wolf, gentlemen.

You win with people, not with talent. So the quality of the people is very important in building your team. I always looked for people with a solid value system. Then I recruited kids from a cross-section of different personalities, talents and styles of play.

We need to look at what Europe is doing to get better and try to get better ourselves. We need to make some changes and that can only be good for the game. Tolstoy once said, 'Everybody wants to change the world, but they don't want to change themselves.' So we all have to change our thinking and focus on getting our kids better.

Win, lose, or tie, you're gonna play like champions!

Maybe I'm sort of like the players - there's still a lot of little boy in me.

This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the Soviets have. Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it!

And maybe I'm a little smarter now than I was before for all the stupid things I've done.

If I'd have went on the ice when this thing happened, someone would have speared me or something. It's a great feeling of accomplishment and pride. They had to do it it was their moment.

When you pull on that jersey, you represent yourself and your teammates, and the name on the front is a hell of a lot more important than the one on the back. Get that through your head!

You were born to be a player. You were meant to be here. This moment is yours.

You don't have enough talent to win on talent alone.

You can't be common, the common man goes nowhere you have to be uncommon

We should be dreaming. We grew up as kids having dreams, but now we're too sophisticated as adults, as a nation. We stopped dreaming. We should always have dreams.

You know, Willie Wonka said it best: we are the makers of dreams, the dreamers of dreams.

Success is won by those who believe in winning & then prepare for that moment. Many want to win, but how many prepare? That is the big difference. A sound value system held water then, holds water today, and will hold water in the future.

Write your own book instead of reading someone else's book about success
