It’s important for kids to have role models. Just to show that goals are reachable. No matter how far you are, how remote you are, you still have an opportunity if you work hard enough. I first realised I was a role model when I came home for the first time after winning the World Juniors and the Calder cup.

Alex Burrows: They communicate like dolphins, first of all.

He actually likes to chirp a little bit, but he does it quietly. He usually lets people do it for him — he’ll say it in my ear and I’ll just throw it out there — or he’ll say it to Danny and he’ll throw it out there. Or maybe they’re chirping me and I’m just the target.
