"I played my minor hockey against Martin St-Louis. I was a good player back then too. Then, I had to change my style. I remember, there were games where I only played one or two shifts (at Tampa Bay).
On the way back, on the plane, I was angry because I hadn't played much or even contributed. But Martin took the time to come sit on the plane with me and would say: 'You know what, André? You are really important to this team. The role you have is difficult, but don't just think about fighting. You can play hockey. I know you and I've seen you play. The last game, when you fought with Parros, and we scored those two goals, you were directly responsible for that. Don't forget it.' Just the fact that he took the time to chat with me like that, I was like 'wow'."
