Two of these are really skewed towards my love of goalies. Enjoy!
Jacques Plante: "How would you like a job where, every time you make a mistake, a big red light goes on and 18,000 people boo?"
Wayne Gretzky: " You miss 100% of the shots you never take."
Herb Brooks, 1980 US Olympic hockey coach: "You don't have enough talent to win on talent alone."
Jim McKenny: "Half the game is mental; the other half is being mental."
Wayne Gretzky: "Some people skate to the puck. I skate to where the puck is going to be."
Author unknown: "Ice hockey players can walk on water."
