At this time, my work on the SPS power supplies had just come to an end; I joined a study group on the pp project and an experimental team studying cooling in a small ring (ICE).
Here's how much I know about hockey. Mike Royko and I were in a tiny bar one winter night, and the radio kept reporting goals by the Blackhawks. I mentioned how frequently the team was scoring. 'You're listening to the highlights,' Royko observed.
I don't fear stopping a 100 mph slap shot. I fear not stopping it!
I can't hear what Jeremy says because my ears are blocked with my two Stanley Cup Rings.
After the hockey stick, Sardara Singh scores with the broom! A great effort by him towards a Swachh Bharat.
Some guys score and some guys don't. We got a lot that don't.
No one in Montreal learns how to skate. You're just born that way.
I don't order fries with my club sandwich.
It's never been easy. But I've always wanted to play hockey. I love hockey. I'd rather play hockey than do anything else. If you have that kind of desire, I think you can achieve what you want to achieve.
Just because you've had one or two of those games, you can't really go back to the next practice and change everything. That's the most important thing in those situations that you don't think too much, you don't try to change too much because then you're going to be in deep trouble, that's what I think. It's all about keep working on what's been successful for you and keep believing what you're doing is the right thing.
Skating is big in Chicago. There's a lot of hockey; a lot of the boys play hockey. And figure skating is big.

I grew up in the Midwest, so we really didn't have much hockey going on.

I'm not stereotypically Canadian. I don't really follow hockey. I don't feel like anything other than myself, basically.
Certainly we're not satisfied with just winning games. We've been playing some pretty good hockey, but we think we can play much better.
We only speak two languages here: English and profanity.
If I get run into again, I'm taking someone with me. I lost one knee. I'll take a head if it happens again.
He ran over a few people, nothing major. Mess runs over people. Sometimes, people don't get up. That's life.
One of the great rules of hockey is: On the Stanley Cup, all germs are healthy.
There's no reason why a player is done at 33, 34. They train better, they eat better, they drink better. This isn't the old days when everybody sat around and drank beer.
I wear whatever makes me comfortable on stage, so that I feel confident. Some days it's a plaid skirt with a button-up and other days it's jeans with a hockey jersey and platforms.
My dad has always said to me, "where there is a will there is a way" and this is the type of dedication hockey has taught me. Being dedicated to this sport [hockey] has been my will to play.
You can show me some stick ice cream and I can tell you if it's good or not just looking at it.
