The longtime member of the Calgary Flames has passed away at the age of 31 following a bicycle accident in Johnny Gaudreau's hometown of Salem County New Jersey. Along with his brother Matthew, the two were in town for their sister's wedding which was set to occur today.
Johnny Gaudreau, nicknamed Johnny Hockey was the favourite player of many for his dynamic playmaking ability and even more impressive off-ice acumen. His brother Matthew Gaudreau equally made waves at Boston College, as well as in the ECHL.
Truly an incredible person and player, Johnny Gaudreau will stay in the memory of Calgary Flames fans for his electric line with Matthew Tkachuk and Elias Lindholm.
