NHL Star Johnny Gaudreau and Brother Killed by Suspected Drunk Driver on Eve of Sister's Wedding in New Jersey
Sep 4, 2024, 01:03 PM
Johnny Gaudreau, a star NHL player, and his brother Matthew Gaudreau were tragically killed by a suspected drunk driver in New Jersey on the eve of their sister's wedding. The Gaudreau family has received an outpouring of support from the hockey community and fans worldwide. Tributes have been pouring in, including heartfelt messages from Boston College's football coach Bill O’Brien, Calgary Flames legend Jarome Iginla, and Blue Jackets captain Boone Jenner. The Calgary Flames have offered grief counseling to their players and staff. A candlelight vigil is planned at the Saddledome in Calgary to honor the brothers, as part of a 13-day observance. Katie Gaudreau, their sister, shared a moving tribute, stating she will never stop honoring her brothers. The Gaudreau family expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support, and over $560,000 has been raised for Matthew Gaudreau’s pregnant widow. The driver involved, Sean Higgins, has been charged in connection with the incident. Johnny Gaudreau’s widow marked their third wedding anniversary amid the tragedy, and the Calgary memorial has been slightly relocated due to a concert.
