Sometimes guys need to cry. Some hockey players think they’re too tough to cry.
Meaning of the quote
It's okay for boys and men to show their emotions and cry when they need to. Some hockey players, who are supposed to be tough, think they shouldn't cry. But that's not true - everyone, including strong athletes, can have feelings that make them want to cry sometimes.

I think the biggest thing for me is being able to adjust to the way the game has changed. It’s basically a 180-degree turn from the style I like to play. That’s what I think I’m most proud of, being able to fit into this style of game and still be fairly successful.
