He's got incredible flexibility, the flexibility of a gymnast.

I wouldn't say I knew he'd play in the NHL some day, but I knew he was an exceptional talent.

I remember the first day I saw him as a 13-year-old, when he walked into the weight room, he just knew what he wanted.

He challenges himself, he sets high standards, makes the sacrifices he needs to make in his social life. ... Few people know what kind of character and work ethic he has.
