The crowd doesn’t give a crap as long as you bring the money in.

After 13 years, I couldn’t accept to be number two.

When trouble comes, it’s your family that supports you.

It was my dream playing for the Montreal Canadiens – it was my dad’s team.

You do not play hockey for good seasons. You play to win the Stanley Cup. It has to be the objective.

Well, it’s always nice to know the fans didn’t forget what you did when you played in the NHL.

I was working on the farm to get in shape, about a mile away from my parents. You know, I did everything as a kid to stay in shape – jogging, work on the farm,...

A lot of the players are not involved with any NHL team, so to play and travel around with the Oldtimers’ it’s a kind of gift that the players really appreciate.

Anyway, I’ve never been captain in 16 years in the NHL. But that didn’t stop me being a leader in my own way.

I realized that my family was more important to me than downtown night life.

The day you hear someone call me captain will be the day I buy a boat.

It’s nice to see the young ones 7, 8, 9 years old. It seems like they know you through their parents.

That’s why I made a comeback in 1988. I knew there were chances of not making it, but I didn’t want to end up at sixty years old and say I should have tried when...
