A series of rumors about my attitude, as well as derogatory remarks about myself and my family showed me that the personal resentment of the Detroit general manager toward me would make it impossible for me to continue playing hockey in Detroit.

I hated everybody I played against, and they hated me. That's the way hockey should be played.

My penalty for rocking the boat was being traded.

I watch a lot of hockey. There are some good hockey players and there are some awfully stupid hockey players.

I liked playing in Chicago, and I gave them everything I had, but I knew in my heart I was a Red Wing.

I had a chance to make a living at the thing I love, and I have always appreciated that, and I have always wanted to give something back.

After three years in Chicago, I decided to call it a career.

I had no friends. I wasn't there to make friends. I was there to win.

I got to play with Jack Stewart for many years, and I appreciated that. He was a wonderful policeman to have on your team.
