Going to Hartford turned out to be the luckiest thing that ever happened to me.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What wouldn't have happened to me if I hadn't ended up in Hartford, Connecticut.
Hartford had the Mark Twain Masquers, which was fantastic. They had been in business I don't know how many years. They knew how to build sets and sell tickets and put on a play. My day started at night. When I left the office, that's when my day began.
Jersey is always with me. I was one of the lucky ones. Asbury Park is just the greatest place in the world to spend your childhood.
Luck has had a great deal to do with my career.
But a funny thing happened four years later. I was invited to play for an alumni team against the Red Wings.
I've had the most incredible luck in my career.
I've been lucky over the past few years. Things have just happened for me.
Everything happens to me. I've never had a streak of luck in my life.
It was a great experience for me - the ups and downs - because I became a man in Philadelphia.
For me, I was really lucky to go to a city like Chicago where the team was struggling at the time, and I was able to go in and play right away.
