A lot of the players are not involved with any NHL team, so to play and travel around with the Oldtimers' it's a kind of gift that the players really appreciate.

I have a lot of plants and fish and a pet lizard and Venus flytraps. I have a whole ecosystem in my room, like a running waterfall and different lights and sensors set on digital timers.

People who were always hardbodies love that competitive style of team-sports activity: they come up with timers and fitness contests and personal bests. But for the vast majority of people, competition in exercise is not fun. It's no fun to compete if you know you can never win.

For Short-Timers there is always a choice. We find that frightening . . . but we also find it beautiful.

But I think it's great to be able to work with established directors and then also first-timers. I feel like you learn from both of them but then you can go and share your knowledge with each of them. That's really fantastic!
