The truth is that I don't have a favourite goal. I remember important goals more than I do favourite goals, like goals in the Champions League where I had the opportunity to have scored in both finals I have played in. Finals in the World Cup or Copa del Rey are the ones that have stayed with me for longer or that I remember more. ↗

25 years later, you know, I haven't really put too much emphasis on any kind of individual goal, other than trying to win any particular night, trying to find a way to do that. ↗

I was assistant in Edmonton with Wayne as captain, and Kevin Lowe was the other assistant. ↗

I would never say one was more important or more gratifying than the next because there's a tremendous amount of work, as you know, that goes into winning a cup. ↗

If I had to compare any of the two, I'd compare the first one in Edmonton, the first one here in New York because it had been so long in New York since we had won. Obviously, being the first time to ever win the cup in Edmonton, they were fairly similar in that regard. ↗
