Hockey Quotes

It's playoff time, so you'll be bored to tears thrilled to know there'll be more hockey-related posts than usual for a while. I'll try to keep it to some sane level, but I have ice in my veins and frozen rubber in my pocket.

That Jacques Plante quote is probably my favorite hockey quote. For those of you who don't know, Jacques Plante was a goalie.
