  1. a loss for the entire hockey community. i can't imagine what the family is going through as they came together for a happy family event and to have this happen hours before the wedding. just unimaginable.

  2. Penalties for drunk driving are obviously not strong enough, things like this happen every day, people who drive after consuming alcohol need to be sent to prison especially when things like this happen. OK, he was a sports star but everyday families lose members to knuckleheads who know they shouldn't be driving but still do so, prison time for those who know better. Sad story but unfortunately not the last story like this we will hear about. 20 years for each death this guy caused, no parole.

  3. maximum sentence for "death by auto," in state of new jersey = 10 years

    maximum sentence for two counts of "death by auto," in state of new jersey = 20 years

    maximum sentence for drunk driving, in state of new jersey = 12 hours

    apparently, killing people with a car, in new jersey, isn't murder…

    all they have to say is, "i didn't mean to" "the moon was in my eyes" "i was drunk" "i didn't see them" "i'm still drunk" "mrica" "cannabis is prohibited" "white people are superior"

    us senators be like:

    "cannabis is still more dangerous than alcohol"

    who is HURRICANE CARTER?

    where's DWAYNE HASKINS FROM?

    i guess that they really are New Jersey Devils…
