I think to compare any time you win a Stanley Cup would be unfair to all the players from all the teams.
Look at great teams like Detroit a couple of years ago; they win the Stanley Cup and guys only score 25 goals, nobody has a really big season.
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.
I played to the best of my ability. Played to win and was fortunate enough to have won a Stanley Cup and a couple gold medals and played on some really good teams... I'm not going to look back and say I wish I could have done this or that.
Anyone who plays in the NHL dreams to win the Stanley Cup and I dreamed as well to be one of them and raise the cup in Washington and bring it home to Moscow and celebrate with my friends and my parents.
My only goal is to win the Stanley Cup and do what I have to to win that.
It's very difficult and unfair probably to compare players from different eras, because they were able to reach excellence in their time and they have to be rewarded for that.
I really do enjoy coming to the rink and working hard, putting the time in as you need when you get older. But the ultimate thing is you want to win the Stanley Cup.
If I had to compare any of the two, I'd compare the first one in Edmonton, the first one here in New York because it had been so long in New York since we had won. Obviously, being the first time to ever win the cup in Edmonton, they were fairly similar in that regard.
Of all the players at the World Cup I don't think it is too much to compare Ronaldinho with the great Pele.
Stanley Cup winners don’t hand back the Stanley Cup.
You want to win in the NBA you want to build a culture and teams will always do that and try to win. It's cutthroat. All 30 teams want to be that way whether they are rebuilding, have young players, have a style of play. It doesn't matter, everybody wants to win.
I would love to win the Champions League once again. Winning big trophies like the Champions League or the World Cup is usually making people think, 'The players are not hungry any more.' Still, that's not what I feel.
To win the Stanley Cup is such a process and it takes everybody on board.
You play the game to win things, and if you asked me whether I would want to finish in the top four or win the FA Cup, it'd be FA Cup every time.
What I've learned so far from researching is that to win the Stanley Cup, you have to make the playoffs.
Individual honors and scoring championships are great, but my No. 1 goal is to win the Stanley Cup.
