In retirement, I have enjoyed it... and everyone misses the game, there's no question, you miss lots of different parts of it.

I've always enjoyed working with kids whether it be hockey school, things like that, and I just thought it would kind of be neat to start there with a book for kids.

You're always going to face a little bit of criticism from time to time. But I was so blessed in Ottawa for so many years. The fans were great to me there. I was blessed to have some good friends and family nearby.

Having a relationship with Jesus and making him the center of everything I do is the most important thing to me in hockey and whatever I am doing.

God's given me this talent and ability and this platform. The worst thing to do is to blow that off and not give the right people credit. He deserves all the credit. My faith has been a big part of growing up into who I am and who I'm trying to become.

I accepted Christ at a young age, at the age of six years old, and just tried to play hockey and balance that. I had some struggles later in my teenage years. I moved away from home and struggled a little bit being on my home and finding out who I was and trying to mix that with my faith and make it real.

Trust is having total confidence in something and having faith in someone or something. It's not one of those things you have a little bit of. To me, that's what trust is all about.

And as far as being a leader, I've always kind of been a bit of a quiet leader for the most part and tend to just lead by work ethic and example and those types of things and just be a good teammate and try to love everyone the same way.

Endings are always tough, but I believe when something ends, there are new beginnings, new opportunities and new things to be excited for, too.

Sometimes you can trust and hope that everything is going to be rosy and God doesn't promise that. He promises that He's got our backs and He's prepared a place for us.
