I am not afraid to stop the puck with my head. I try to do it sometimes even in practice; not everyday but once in a while, I say to my teammates, shoot me in my head and I'll try to stop the puck.

You put yourself out there in the truest way you can and hope others do the same. You'll connect or you won't, but you did what you could. It's like playing ball in some way. There are guys on the team, like Cody, I'd give my life for. But you have to be willing to lay down your life for all of them if you want to put the best you on the field. Every guy on that field has to believe you'll bring nothing back off the field with you.

In all of my years of service to my Lord, I have discovered a truth that has never failed and has never been compromised.

Charles Spurgeon

Ten minutes praying is better than a year's murmuring.

Dick Van Dyke

All of us involved say 'The Dick Van Dyke Show' was the best five years of our lives. We were like otters at play.
