juicepls

It’s obviously a bittersweet day. I think it will get better as time goes on. I’ve known for a few weeks now that my days as a Vancouver Canuck were going to be numbered. It’s a bit emotional, but I had a great run in Vancouver. It’s a great organization, and I have nothing but great memories in Vancouver. I have a lot of great friends that I’ve made on the ice and in the dressing room. Obviously the Sedins and [Alex] Burrows I played with for over a decade, and I grew up with those guys. Obviously Dan Hamhuis. I could go on forever. I’ve had a lot of great relationships that I’ll keep the rest of my life. A lot of great friends we made in the city, through the kids’ school. It’s tough to leave Vancouver, but it’s also exciting to have a new chapter in my life and to move on to a great city in Anaheim, a great hockey team and it will be exciting moving forward and see what happens.
