Fun Quote by T. J. Oshie

“When I'm out there, the last thing I'm thinking about is if I'm going to get hurt or if I'm going to get another concussion. If it happens, it happens, but if I start thinking like that, I don't think hockey would be too fun if you're skating around scared.” quote by T. J. Oshie
