I hope he makes the NHL. Luke is a brave kid. I hope other kids who may be afraid to come out see him as a real success story and will be less afraid to be who they are.

Hopefully, it works out that way. It just too bad the world cannot accept people for the way they are.

i just hope if he makes the NHL its because of his talent and not because of his preferences to appease the PC crowd.
tokenism helps no one. i would bet he would agree.

I'm sure he'll have to earn his spot like everyone else.
