Winning the Stanley Cup in '99 was a dream come true. I'll never forget it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
People ask if I regret not winning a Stanley Cup, but winning the series against the Soviet Union was the best. It was the greatest experience of my hockey career by far.
It was my dream playing for the Montreal Canadiens - it was my dad's team.
As a kid, you dream of winning the Stanley Cup. As you get older, you understand the importance of winning the Olympics.
All the people that come out and show their support and their pride for your accomplishments, I think it really reminds you that without people you don't ever to get to live that dream. To play in the NHL is one thing, but to win the Stanley Cup and come back and share it with everyone is another thing.
Through the years, I have so many wonderful memories of playing with the Red Wings: winning four Stanley Cups, scoring big goals, going into battle every night side by side with my teammates, playing with every ounce of effort I could muster.
Growing up in Canada, most kids from Canada dream of playing in the NHL, and they also hope one day to be on a Stanley Cup team. That was a big goal.
I have great memories of my years in Edmonton and the players who were my teammates.
It's obviously disappointing and surreal when you see someone else win the Stanley Cup.
My experience at the 1992 Winter Olympics was my fulfillment of dreaming the Impossible Dream.
Being drafted by the Montreal Canadiens, that was the greatest moment in my career. And stealing the Stanley Cup in 1978 and bringing it back to my hometown of Thurso.
