dream hard-work hockey
I always wanted to play professional hockey. Every hockey player's dream, no matter at what level or what age, is to play professionally. At first you don't know what it's all about, but you have that dream and you always work hard toward it. The older you get, the more you start dedicating yourself to the game.

I just tried to stay back and stay patient. I got lucky and it worked out.

There's the old saying that when it gets tough, the tough get going. You have to work your way through these things.

There is definitely some of that going on but (the league) wants to create more scoring, so they're happy and they don't really care about it, ... I've never had a problem (with protecting himself). I have always tried to take care of the crease anyway. For the most the referees try to do a good job of protecting you.

That stuff is just the media making things up.

That's the one piece of equipment I have some issues with and I'm close to figuring it out, ... I've had four or five goals go through the bottom of the glove that normally don't go in and it's definitely frustrating.

I thought about it afterwards. It's frustrating. It's a new rule that you have to get used to it.
