Growing up in Canada, I dated a few ice hockey players.

Figure skaters have awful perceptions of hockey players.

All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity.

Sometimes guys need to cry. Some hockey players think they're too tough to cry.

Hockey players are given as much respect as any other sportsperson in our country.

There are some guys you definitely would not want dating your sister - especially hockey players.

The beauty of hockey players is that they make everyone feel included and make everyone feel a part of it.

I watch a lot of hockey. There are some good hockey players and there are some awfully stupid hockey players.

We're not only hockey players. A lot of guys have families and girlfriends. You can't just think about hockey 24-7.

Canadians send us great hockey players. You also send us wonderful performers, from the beginning, with Mary Pickford.

We'll have clinics and educational events and conferences to get more and more young players developing as hockey players.

I'm proud to be Russian. We have probably the best country in the world. Everything is the best: hockey players, cars, girls.

We've met a ton of pro hockey players, got to know them, our music plays in their locker rooms. We've always taken pride in that.

My dream is to see athletes also getting the same recognition, fame, success and money as cricketers, footballers and hockey players get in India.

The wrestling is real, all the injuries are real, so much so that in no other sports, whether soccer or cricket or hockey, players get so many injuries as in WWE.

A different type of human has to play that sport. Hockey players keep fighting - nobody cares what's wrong with you, as long as you have one foot to skate on, you keep playing.

I went by Kyle, and I made friends on the team as Kyle. It went on for a pretty long time, until I went to a birthday party in a dress and all the hockey players were like... 'Kyle?'

It is no fun lining up in your own building - as the hockey players say - and touching the hands of fellow stubbly louts who have just sent you off to the proverbial cabin on the lake.

It's a great culture to be a part of: there are hockey players all over the world. It has taken me to an education, getting an education at Wisconsin. I've been able to travel the world.

For good reasons, there are no ties during the Stanley Cup season. Somebody needs to win so the lads can get out to their cottages on the lakes, where all hockey players spend their summers, or so I have been told.

Tremendous respect to hockey players. It's not easy every day, going out and getting hit, especially the goalies with all that padding on, that small puck, trying to track it - hand-eye co-ordination is a must. They're some amazing athletes.

The first year I started hockey, I didn't know how to skate, so I got on the ice with all of the hockey players, and we were doing drills where we had to go backwards in figure eights. And I could not skate, and I just kept falling on my butt, and it was very embarrassing.
