Every day growing up, I had this dream about the World Cup: I score the winning goal. In the final minute. With my butt!

As a professional player, I consider my career closed, but I don't want to exclude the possibility in the future that I may return, but not as a player.

Every time I return here, I always have fond memories of my time with Fiorentina.

I wanted to score the winning goal in the 90th minute of the World Cup final.

I've always loved sports and hockey is a sport I play as much as I can. I love it. In a weird way it's like church and therapy and exercise all rolled up into one. I mean when I play hockey I don't think about anything.

Football is something I enjoy doing, something I'm well-paid to do, and obviously that's a great privilege, but I'm just trying to be happy, and if there's an opportunity to do something fun, then I'll just do it. I don't hold back; I just want to be a regular guy.

I think, as an athlete, you tend to be cautious of your body language and what you're doing on the ice. That might be the only moment someone sees you.

There will soon be streams of data coming from all manner of products - appliances, clothing, sporting goods, you name it. Wouldn't you rather live in a world where you can export the data from your son's football helmet to a new app that monitors force and impact against a cohort of high school players around the country?
