Jack Hughes Injured His Right Shoulder & Will Miss a Few Weeks...How Does This Affect The New Jersey Devils?

Well, looks like our #18 overall draft pick from Arizona won't drop below the #28 selection. Because they have been playing like absolute garbage during these playoff series. In their last contest against Colorado (at the time of this recording) they lost 7-1, and it was an absolute s***show. Also, they had some front office drama that involved the Devils.Philadelphia Update: Now up 3-1, not looking good for MontrealSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar: Go to builtbar.com and use promo code “LOCKEDON" to get $10 off your first order.

I purposely posted this episode on Friday, to give you something to think about over the weekend. I need to address another elephant in the room, which is the NHL's social media statements of #KneelForHockey or #WeSkateForBlackLives. I noticed these hashtags during the NHL playoffs, and I have a few questions and also statements that I need to address. As a person of color, I want to provide MY OWN (DISCLAIMER: I CANNOT SPEAK FOR OTHER PEOPLE) personal perspective on these social media hashtags and kneeling in general. My main takeaway: don't let that be the only thing you do. I explain it more in this serious episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

I am having a very bad day, I am in no mood, this (today) is one of the worst days I've had in a long time! I'm not in the mood to play with anybody. Well, it's official with the first overall selection in the NHL Draft that pick is going to: Lindy Ruff's former team the New York Rangers! Well, my luck just ran out. I didn't want Toronto to get that pick, never mind our bigger rival obtaining it...I didn't even think about it. I guess that's karma on my end.
