For me personally, I try to use my size to my advantage where I can either slip by guys or try to create more space for myself.
From Patrick Kane
I probably spend the most time with Toews: we have the same schedule, and we're roomies on the road; we sit next to each other. We do a lot of promotions together.
I like Joe Sakic. Coming out of Buffalo, I obviously like Alexander Mogliny, Pat LaFontaine. Hasek is up there. Miroslav Satan. Whoever seemed to be a good player at the time I'd watch. Jagr too. I tried to learn a lot from those guys.
It's obviously disappointing and surreal when you see someone else win the Stanley Cup.
Obviously, not playing a game before playoffs is something that happened, but especially going into the playoffs, you try to feel yourself out, where you're at, and then get right into game tempo and jump right in and play where you were before the injury.
I think I owe it to myself to put my best effort forward and prove how good I can be.
Especially in the day and age now with social media and cameraphones and things like that, you always have to act like you're being watched.
I love to play the game, love to be around the rink, and love to joke around with my teammates and have some fun.
It's good to get out there and kind of move the body around a little bit, play some hockey, enjoy Nashville as a city and spend some time with family and friends.
It's good for the NHL to implement different things - the 3-on-3, money that'll go to players - to try to get us to play at a higher level.
