When I was kid, number one meant just being number one. 2
The best at everything, trying to be the best at everything, at least. 3
And number one in your programs, 4
number one in your hearts, so it's a nice thought. 5
>> And I know you've already been retired here for almost a year. 6
But if you walk around BB&T, a lot of the Luongo jersey is still around for 7
every game. 8
What does it mean just when you see people wearing your jersey this days? 9
>> It's still special, I sit up in the press box, so 10
I can see the people at their backs. 11
And a lot of times, I can spot a few Luongo jerseys out there, 12
which is always a nice feeling to see that you're somebody's favorite player, or 13
made an impact on somebody. 14
And those are the little things that a lot of people don't see but 15
it do mean a lot to me. 16
Yeah, it's definitely not the end. 17
I mean, maybe it's the end on the ice but like you just said, I'm here every day, 18
I'm at every home game, I feel like I'm part of the team still. 19
The losses hurt just as much now than they did then when I was playing. 20
So I'm fully invested and I'm trying to bring whatever I can 21
to take this team to somewhere that it's never been before. 22
So just one chapter's been closed but I think another is open for me, and 23
that's the way I've been looking at it so far. 24
