 We got NHL superstar you played in the NHL for what 13 seasons yeah long enough long enough long enough for me You're pretty much a social media influencer, too. What else would you call yourself? I think of myself more as a blogger really so try to have fun Well, we've had Marianne Rivera on this show everybody from John Carlos Yeah, Jack Hughes one of your former teammates and now we got you and you actually have the most followers out of all of them So this is pretty special. You ready to take a look at some of them. Sure. Let's do it. I'm ready Like I said, I asked you what you call yourself before and I'm gonna call you the man Well, you know what? This is a tribute to a team that first of all traded for me paid me a lot of money supported my my social causes my foundation so you know what it's all about spread and love and Very rarely can players when they retire Return the favor to an organization. So wanted to return the favor. Love it Look good doing it and also dude throwback. I was a big listen to me I was a big fan of the Nets growing up love Jason kid So I mean, I don't know what the what's going on with the hair But as you can see I had no forehead then and I still have no forehead now So and also too so when you came to New Jersey to play for the Devils You ended up setting down around here and here you are right here in New York City, man Yeah, I live in the city. I enjoy being in the city and one of the many perks of living in the city is the Hamptons isn't too far and Sometimes I'm balling on a budget. I guess that weekend. I wasn't so much worried about the bullet budget Just enjoying with my friends and took the helicopter ride to the Hamptons. It was great big New York I love it. So when you're not in a helicopter, just what you're in No, man, I mean I've had that car for like five years. That was the first time I'd ever moved the vehicle myself So, uh, I drove it off the trailer and into another car housing place warehouse in Toronto And it's gonna stay there. So I'm not a huge car guy After moving to New York City and uh driving this when you're over in Italy I'm surprised you didn't bring this back with you for the parking reasons. That was funny You know, a lot of my friends love this video. Um, and that was also cool Like that car was going up like 30 40 miles an hour man. I was flying Um, it was a little bit unsafe. I mean I don't know. I can't remember if there was a seat belt in it or anything like that But there was nothing cooler than that driving like through Italy And one of those cars just chilling no roof hanging out with your friends Italy's the best spot. Dude the trip looks sick So when you get out of the car and you're you're busting these moves, man What makes you do that? Uh, well, we were on a winning streak so when you're on a winning streak you can pretty much do whatever you want and uh You know, I thought the hips look loose. So clearly I was feeling great All right, so uh these skates that you have right here So our boy, he did Mookie Betts and a bunch of other big leaguers. Yeah, these are sick Like do you still where do you have these inside the apartment and also to like the NHLs? That would be sick if they did this more first of all I've seen a lot of personalized stuff from fans, but I would love to see the players Um, you know personalized more of their stuff You know, you kind of see it with the NFL with the players cleats They get them personalized. They do stuff like that. It'd be great to see the NHL do that. Um, You know, I've been lucky enough to be able to personalize my own pair. I did it for the winter classic Uh in boston and you know to think about it I played three years in Nashville and to have fans make things like that for me is pretty special. So that was dope Yes, so we're used to seeing The baseball players. Oh, yeah, so these are Aaron judges done by lucia put wear And these are sick. Yeah, those are sick I'm a big fan. You know, what's cool now is now that like I'm retired. I can wear whatever sneakers I want So now I get like I wear every type of sneaker and I'm most excited about wearing jordan's So, you know, nikes. I law like, you know, who doesn't like Nike shoes I was an adidas guy my whole life still love my adidas But jordan brand like I wear jordan's every chance that I get so and judges a jordan guy That's perfect. Hell, yeah So this at the skills competition, you had a great seat and if you could create Something skills wise for major league baseball say like the homerun derby. What would you do? I'd like to take like the best The best hitters in the league the best pitchers in the league And put them in like a ring with like soccer bobbers and just let them go at each other Because every I love it when they when they storm the dugout and then they come out and everybody's getting in fights Because the high pitches, you know what at all stars just let these guys duke it out. No one's getting hurt You know, it's bragging rights. Just let them duke it out. That's what I'd like to see Dude, that would be sick. It'd be awesome. And here we are. So we talked about jack Hughes before Hughes on this show Those are my homies. Yeah, and he's always rocking yankees gear, man It seems like every picture's got a yankees flat Well, I mean listen, I could have a sit down with jack and talk to him about that. I mean You know, I'm a blue jays guy. So, you know jacks Jacks from michigan. So I don't know. I don't know exactly why he's wearing that but Plays in new jersey spends a lot of time. I'm sure in the city and in jersey. So he's allowed to and he looks good in it He's an influencer too. So, you know what I mean? He can wear whatever he wants. Wear whatever you want jack So this is a road talks, right? So you've been great at your broadcasting So can I get 10 seconds of a of a starter jacket talk about like why iron judge is one of the best superstars in baseball I think iron judge is the man because first of all mike pre-bag Is my chiropractor and I know that he worked with the blue jays Helped out with the yankees a little bit as well as gill chimes And they speak very highly of iron judge Aside from everything he does on the field or in the locker room. I know that he's good people So for that, uh, you know what? I I'm I mess with iron judge for sure and he's a jordan guy So for me any athlete that gets to represent the jordan brand in any sport means that you know what I mean? You're playing above the rim. So play above the air and keep doing what you're doing And the last one is a picture of you at uh at the hospital giving back So for everybody watching this you could probably tell that pk is obviously cool, dude But you have such a big heart. So how much does it mean for you to give back? Yeah, I mean it's you know, that that was my thing I think that like everybody should you know try to give back when they have a platform I mean, we'd love to see everybody get back But for some people it's not necessarily their thing and not everybody has to give 10 million dollars or Or do as much work as some athletes do. I think you got to do something and for me Uh, it's part of my family the way that I was raised, you know my my My dad's a principal my mom raised five kids both my sister's a teacher's my sister's husband's a teacher So, you know a lot of what our family does is work with kids. So for me, that's how I was raised and Uh, I feel like I've been blessed and given a lot of my life So I try to give back as much as I can and uh, I was presented an opportunity to Be able to make a huge difference and not only some kids lives with family's lives And I took it and I ran with it and every day I know that uh, no matter I don't have any bad days bad days. I have challenging days, you know So I tell people that uh, when you're able to make a difference in people's lives You have no idea how it can come full circle dude amazing. So for everybody watching this Obviously, you're out and about here at the nhl store with starter talking to fans right now I gotta say the store is lit. I don't know if I've ever seen a store like this. It's lit So we're going to go check it out And what is your favorite part about social media in general and events like this when you get to interact with the fans And why should everybody follow you? Yeah, it's interaction. You know what? Social media is one of those things that some days you love it some days you don't like it but ultimately it's what keeps us connected and You want to be connected and for events like this for fans that aren't here I mean take a look on social because there's some really cool stuff here and for hockey Everyone always talks about you know us marketing the game and getting out there. Well, this is a part of it You know, we're doing things traditionally different But we got to get it on a platform where people recognize it But people got to be looking forward as well.
