All I can say to the young players is, enjoy every moment of it. Just enjoy every moment of it. Your career goes by very quickly.

I didn't speak English until I came to Pittsburgh.

I'm only 35, and I felt that the time was right to try to come back and have a chance for him to see me play.

Mario Lemieux

When it comes to hockey, it's been in my blood since I was 3 or 4 years old. I love coaching the kids, especially at that level.

Mario Lemieux

Depending on how we start the season, I can play center or wing... It doesn't matter to me.

Mario Lemieux

We feel that, with Sidney, we have a great opportunity over the next few years to put a great team on the ice. We're prepared to lose some money along the way. Eventually we're going to need some help.

It's up to the community now to decide if they want to keep this team.

As I've said, in 2007, we're free to go and we'll just have to do what's best for the business.

My body's feeling it a little bit. But one good thing, my back is in good shape, and that's my main concern. I know that my legs are going to take awhile to get back to where I was a few years ago, but as long as my back is solid, I feel that I can play many years.

Mario Lemieux

If I could play this game at a decent level, I'd come back and play.

Mario Lemieux

He's only 4 years old, so I don't think he realized, you know, that I played so many years. Of course, we watch tapes here from the Stanley Cup years, but I don't think he realized how many years I played.

Mario Lemieux

I don't try to match wine with food, I just drink what I like. And I think a lot of people are going towards that now, which never used to be in the past.

I think that with a lot of hard work and dedication, I feel that I could be the best in the world. I'm still only 35 years old... I have a fresh start physically and mentally, and I feel that I can achieve my goal to be the best again.

Mario Lemieux

Hockey is a tough, physical game, and it always should be.

Mario Lemieux

It was great to play with some of my old linemates.

Mario Lemieux

Every day is a great day for hockey.

Mario Lemieux

One thing I hate is people screaming at me. If you want me to do something, talk to me.

Mario Lemieux

Since the beginning, I always loved the game. When you grow up in Montreal, one day you want to be a professional hockey player. When I was six or seven, I knew that was what I wanted.

Mario Lemieux

I've gone through back surgery a couple times, and of course, my radiation treatments for six weeks got me to the point where I was not able to play at the level that I was accustomed to.

Mario Lemieux

When someone screams at me to hurry up, I slow down.

Mario Lemieux

I have two main reasons for retiring. The first is I can no longer play at a level I was accustomed to in the past. That has been very, very frustrating to me throughout this past year. The second one is realizing my health, along with my family, is the most important thing in the world.

Mario Lemieux

I can no longer play at a level I was accustomed to in the past.

Mario Lemieux

When I'm able to see the ice ahead of time when I get the puck, I'm able to make some pretty good plays.

Of course, my family has been a big reason for me to come back, especially my son who loves the game of hockey - he was a big reason for me coming back.

Mario Lemieux

The first few games that we played against some of the teams, the young guys, you know, want a stick sign or photo sign, and I think that they respect what I have achieved throughout my career.

Mario Lemieux

Well, I think just a desire to come back and be a part of the game again.

Mario Lemieux

This is really a new NHL and it's built on speed and young guys.

Mario Lemieux

My son, he is the reason I got involved. It's been a joy to be around him and teach him the stuff that I know, and to the other kids as well. When he started playing I wanted to be involved in his hockey career. It's a lot of fun for both of us.

Mario Lemieux

A month before the season I stop putting ketchup on my french fries.

Mario Lemieux

We, as a league, must do a better job of protecting the integrity of the game and the safety of our players.

Mario Lemieux

This arena is a special place. Everybody loves it. To be able to stand behind the bench and be a part of a great tournament for the '96 Elite is fun. The kids, having a chance to play in the building where the Penguins play, it's a special feeling for them.

Mario Lemieux

I think the game has opened up, and that's why I decided to come back and try to be a part of it.

Mario Lemieux

Once I'm at the arena with the guys in the dressing room, and in the bus, and on the plane, I'm a player. And I sit in the back with the players and I play cards and try to take their money.

Mario Lemieux

I think the lottery changed everything for us. Once we got Sidney, it helped us turn this franchise around overnight.
