“To be honest, even though I expect a lot from myself, for my rookie year I knew how tough it would be. So I didn't have too many expectations for my first year.”

“I'm a big hockey guy.”

“I've tried to lead by example.”

“In my rookie year, I got a chance to play and from there on, I just tried to prove I can be a really good player in this league.”

“I think the reason I was successful in my rookie season is because I was having a lot of fun.”

“I can say Rookie of the Year is what I want to do.”
