He's as old as some trees.

Coaching the Bruins is like going bear hunting with a butter knife.

Don't feel sorry because my life is over. Be happy that it happened.

I believe in Wendel Clark. We want Wendel to be a prime-time player.

The kids get cheated out of a lot of times with their dad. They were good about it.

I'm not an overly happy person. There are times when I'm happy, and that's usually in my private life.

Excuse my voice - I don't have the thundering voice I used to have to get players going on the ice anymore.

As for my career, I always said to my kids, 'you don't cry because it's over, you're happy because it happened.'

They're trying to kill me before I'm dead. I come to Quebec to spend some time with my family and they say I'm dead.

An avowed homosexual, that would never be accepted in hockey - never! Because it's a milieu where everyone is often naked.

Toronto was a great place to work, a fun place to work. People were so hockey-oriented, hockey-minded, without being too critical. In Montreal, they got downright nasty sometimes.

I got hit with an octopus in Detroit one time. It was the most gross thing I've ever had happen. I got it right in the back of the neck; all the juice was coming down. It was awful.

After referees negated a line change that led to Tampa Bay"s winning goal in the Stanley Cup Playoffs: After all these years in the league, am I that stupid that I would put four forwards and one defenseman in a 3-3 tie, in the third period? I think everybody that knows me here knows I"m not that stupid. I might be halfway stupid, but not that stupid.
