[Engels] Kent Hughes a dit aux Canadiens lors du dîner d’avant-camp de l’équipe que Joe Sakic avait l’habitude de dire qu’il avait passé la première moitié de sa carrière à essayer de s’établir dans la LNH et la dernière moitié à essayer d’y rester. Cela semble avoir résonné, puisque chaque joueur avec qui nous parlons continue de le mentionner.
Kent Hughes told the Habs at the team's pre-camp dinner that Joe Sakic used to say that he spent the first half of his career trying to establish himself in the NHL and the last half trying to stay. It seems to have resonated, since each player we speak with keeps bringing it up.

There is also a strong message for the veteran in this quote. Never take anything for granted and to always work your ass off for your dream.
