Funny Hockey Memory: "Playing in college, I was at Michigan. We were playing against Michigan State in Michigan State. And I got announced for the starting lineup.

Last Halloween Costume: "I think I was a basketball player. A Laker."
Favorite Hockey Players To Watch: "I'd say Sakic is my favorite player in the league right now."
Favorite Athletes To Watch: "LeBron. I love LeBron's game. (What about NFL?) Peyton and Eli Manning. (Tennis?) Roger Federer. Amazing. Unbelievable. (Boxing?) Muhammad Ali. Watching the old clips is great. I read his book. Pretty exciting. (Golf?) Freddie Couples. (Why him?) Just [has been a] childhood idol of mine. I've been a big golfer since I was a kid. He's my favorite and I actually got the pleasure of meeting him a few times. Jeremy Roenick knows him. He actually goes to a lot of their games in Phoenix, so he introduced me to him a couple of times and I've gotten to know him now. So it's pretty exciting for me."
People Qualities Most Admired: "Honesty and character I'd say."
