It is a sad day for hockey. It is a historic day, actually. He was one of the greatest pure goal scorers of all-time. He helped me a lot when I went to St. Louis, when I was about 21-years-old. He helped me get to another level just watching him in practice and learning from him in games.

It feels good because obviously, you please your teammates. They're not just meaningless goals. You play to win games. You want to be in a situation to get a big goal and provide a win.

Scoring a goal is special. Scoring a hat trick is special. I don't think you ever get tired of it. You know, obviously, once you get the second one, you start a kind of run for the puck and the net.

As much as we're known for our goal scoring, we're also very strong defensively. We can do the same to them and stifle their offence. If we have to win a game 1-0, we'll win a game 1-0.
