I look forward to a lot more free time, at least initially, with my wife, Lisa, and our three children.

When you're on the ice, you have very little time, you see very little, and everything happens really quick.

It's been a great honor for me to be a player for the Detroit Red Wings, to play for an Original Six franchise. I know I'm far from perfect, but I learned a lot.

When it gets to this point, it's just hard to pull the trigger.

There used to be an old thing where every team had a heavy bag in their locker room for people to punch, but again, it was more about conditioning because if you hit a heavy bag for a minute, it feels like your arms are about to fall off.

We have to get better at that. All of the Stanley Cup winning teams throughout the past few seasons, when they needed to play defense, they did it. If you can play defense, that's when you know it's game over.

I don't know that I'd agree I was our best player.
