Guy is a drunk, and drunk 99% of the time when they do their dumb podcast. Can't believe people listen to that ####.

It's a good podcast. Great guys.

You will likely not get jail time for the careless driving ones which are provincial offences.

No idea what the minimum sentence in NJ is, but, although I could be wrong, think it's two years in Canada, plus you can credit for time and a half served before trial.

I suppose that is a matter of opinion...they are big time dude bros who think very highly of themselves

IYa, its one thing if you dont like it, but to say he's drunk 99% of the time he does his podcast... he almost never drinks on the regular podcast.

They had nothing but amazing things to say about Johnny.

Yeah Whit is hardly ever drunk on the podcast. RA on the other hand..

It definitely isn’t for everyone, but I’ve been listening for years. To claim that they’re all douchbages is a bit much. Not for everyone for sure, but they’re a massive part of hockey media these days.

I searched the name in Google and after the news stories that website came up. I felt bad that he probably got lumped in with the guy who's in jail.

I don't know why you're mad, he had nothing to do with the incident.

Lots of people share common names

Be better, clean it up

Probably better to just let it go? Sorry for empathizing with someone who probably got some rude reaction because of his name? Sorry generally for causing you exasperation?

Sheesh. Let's go back to talking about if Ryan Whitney is drunk, I guess.

I suspect a lot more people are googling and feeling sorry for Johnny Gaudreau than are digging deep and googling his killer and finding guys with the same name who live elsewhere and then harassing them

Yeah. Some other ####ing xxx Higgins is the real victim here. #### sales, that’s stupid

Thanks. You do you, caped crusader

If you noticed, this thread was made to keep this talk out of the Gaudreau thread.

You know who I could suggest empathizing with?

The Gaudreau brothers’ widows and kids
Their parents
Their teammates
Their ex teammates
Their coaches
The people they encountered every day and occasionally in their day to day lives


You know who is way at the bottom of a really long list? People you google who are clearly not the same person who live elsewhere but share a common name with the killer


You want kudos for empathizing with coincidental randos that nobody is thinking about?

Way to dig in. I guess

It is just weird

I just scrubbed the post and I apologized to you. I beg your forgiveness. Is there anything else I can do?

Cool. Sorry you were offended (truly).

Don't expect him to get much time. I'd guess most likely no jail time, though Johnny was famous so maybe he gets some. If this was an ordinary person it would be no jail time.

On The MADD website, the range of jail time in NJ for drunk driving causing death ranges from 5-10 years.

I will also depend if he is charged with other crimes.

In 2020 a guy came out of a bar in Cochrane drunk, ran into a couple of parked cars, then mowed down a cyclist and killed him. I can’t even find anything on his sentencing…anybody know anything about that one?
