I definitely pushed the envelope … and really enjoyed what I did.Ī: I was playing in the moment. I was good enough and healthy to be able to play in my early 40s. I just wanted to continue as long as I could. I think the accountability, and I think the adrenaline that the games bring to you is something at the end I had a hard time coping not to let go. I think it’s the love of the game, you don’t play for that long not liking what you do. Just lucky that you feel better more often than feel bad about my game. There’s times that you feel that the puck is as small as an Advil coming at you. It happens a lot in a season, there’s ups and downs and everything. Q: Was there ever a point when your confidence was shaken just a little bit?Ī: Oh, yeah, for sure. I’d be like, “Wow, that means that they don’t have confidence that they can beat me from there.” Q: Could you tell by the look on their face that you were getting in their heads?Ī: Yeah, sometimes I knew they would have some good looks to shoot and they would just bail and make passes.

What the Islanders might salvage if the Maple Leafs' upveaval becomes a full implosion Star's position issue taking center stage in Islanders' offseason Knowing he still has that in him at age 40 was a moment of reassurance for the living legend.Islanders make decision on their leadership core Those bounces could have easily gone Marty's way, and Marty could have been hoisting the cup above his head for the fourth time. Marty put up a brilliant effort in the first two games but lost to a couple of unlucky bounces in overtime losses. Sadly for Marty, Jonathan Quick and the LA Kings were on a historic run. Prior to that, Marty shut down another Atlantic Division rival, the Flyers, in the quarterfinals. Marty's stellar play in the Eastern Conference eliminated current top goaltender and Rangers star Henrik Lundqvist from the third round. He is not on the Devils because the franchise is indebted to him, but because he is still that good. That is because even as a 40-year-old living legend, Marty has shown that he deserves to be in this league. But, by looking at Marty in some of these postgame photos, one would think he did win.
