I was on the 17th hole getting ready to hit an approach shot.

Blue-collar city, blue-collar fans, great sports fans.

I returned the call (and it was Jim Gregory of the selection committee) and found out I'd been selected. Needless to say, I didn't finish the round. I put birdies down for the 17th and 18th holes.

I'm just so proud of the fact that I was recognized for the way I played the game and kind of the impact that maybe I had for the style that I played. ... Numbers to me were never really an important factor of how I can help our team win. So to me, to have the recognition of the way I played and maybe have people kind of appreciate the fact of the way I played was a huge honor for me.

Getting to the Stanley Cup Finals twice with the Bruins was quite a highlight. But on the other hand, it was also disappointing to get that far and not win the championship.

It got shortened to Bone eventually.

It's great to be recognized for the way I played the game.

It meant as much to me to give a big hit as it did to score a big goal. And to leave a mark for being that kind of player is special to me.

He's such a great friend.
