“I’m trying to be among the elite night after night, year after year. I just want to be the best ... and I love winning.”

“When people count me out, that gets me motivated.”

"I'm definitely one of the best. Always have been; always will be. I won’t accept anything less."

"I always wanted to play professional hockey. Every hockey player's dream, no matter at what level or what age, is to play professionally. At first you don’t know what it’s all about, but you have that dream and you always work hard toward it. The older you get, the more you start dedicating yourself to the game."

“I’m not a pretty goalie and I don’t ever want to be called one, to tell you the truth.”

"I simply don't accept losing well. I just feel whatever it takes to win, you have to do it."

"I'm still on the edge. It's just that I don’t want to hurt the team by going over that edge. I've learned not to be as maniacal as I used to be."

"I take it upon myself to get motivated. I know when I have a bad game. It's something I think about myself when it happens, and I don't need someone to tell me I didn't do this or didn't do that."

"The more noise, the higher I get."
