    Never get caught trying to tell a hockey player it’s just a game. Never get caught trying to explain to him all the things in the world that matter so much more. His mind might well acknowledge the truth to your point, but his soul would be powerless to accept it. Considering the immensity of what he gives to the sport, & the immeasurability of all it offers in return. Nothing ever feels as perfect as a moment of flawlessness on the ice. No bond is string as one that compels brothers to bleed for one another. Not many leaders will disperse in the craft of motivation. Not many pursuits can evoke such visions of brilliance. This is why it hurts so much when skill falls short of what the will desires. This is why it’s so unforgettable when absolute passion yields ultimate reward. And that’s all just the start….of what the game can do to you. ‎”The stakes rise as the season continues from here…. while you watch from a distance remember what was validated up close….hockey may very well be just a game, but it’s also who they are

    “That is what I am going to miss the most. I’ve been there for 10 years. Philadelphia was like my second home. When you stay there more than a decade, you start to get familiar with the area. You build friendships with the players, the training staff and all the people working for the Flyers.

    “The organization becomes like your family a little bit. But you have to understand that hockey is a business and that is the way it is. I am going to miss a lot of people there and it is going to be tough. But I am looking forward to this new challenge of going to Tampa Bay. I think it will be a great place and great fit for me.

    “I think the thing I will miss the most are the Flyers fans. All the support I got there for the 10 years that I played, even during the tough times when I had some injuries, the fans were really fair with me the whole time. There were a lot of No. 12 jerseys in the stands even when I started with the team in 1999. To them, I would just like to say a huge thank you. Those are the people I am going to miss the most.”

    I wonder if, after hearing today’s news, this goal immediately popped into the heads of Flyers fans everywhere.
