It's obviously disappointing and surreal when you see someone else win the Stanley Cup.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
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.
I think to compare any time you win a Stanley Cup would be unfair to all the players from all the teams.
I'm competitive. I'd love another chance to be part of a Stanley Cup championship team. That'd be awesome.
As a kid, you dream of winning the Stanley Cup. As you get older, you understand the importance of winning the Olympics.
Winning the Stanley Cup in '99 was a dream come true. I'll never forget it.
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.
I don't even know what the odds are for one kid or one team to make it here. Obviously, being from Canada this is their Stanley Cup - they made it. It's hard enough to get here and it's hard enough to advance.
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.
The excitement of the fans in Montreal, especially in the playoffs, I don't think you can get that anywhere else. For a hockey player, I kind of wish everyone could go through that and experience what it is to play there. It's very unique.
For good reasons, there are no ties during the Stanley Cup season. Somebody needs to win so the lads can get out to their cottages on the lakes, where all hockey players spend their summers, or so I have been told.
