And then when I got to the NHL, guys New York Yankees would make fun of me that I had the worse style in the league. I showed up for my first road trip and all the guys have these Gucci bags and these Louis Vuitton bagsyou know, these sweet bags.

Sure enough, had to go out and buy myself a nice Tumi bag. Next thing you know, theyre chirping my hair. You gotta go get a nicer Dellin Betances Jersey hair cut than thatthats awful. I think its a little bit better now, but I still have some work to do."
