COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) – The Columbus Blue Jackets will open a new season Thursday night in Nashville.
There’s a really good feeling around the team after a late run last season, where they almost made the playoffs following a tough season after the death of Johnny Gaudreau.
Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau’s deaths are still very fresh for family, friends and fans, but Johnny’s widow, Meredith, and the family have started a foundation to honor the legacy of the brothers.
The Gaudreau boys were two guys who grew up playing the game and the foundation will help others who love the game, supporting hockey opportunities for children in low-income areas. It will also support families who are facing tragedies and help families impacted by drunk driving.
The foundation is a way to help in areas where Johnny and Matthew felt strongly, two individuals who loved hockey and who recognized that drunk driving continues to be a problem.
“We're just hoping to really help other families, whether that be, you know, maybe there's two brothers on a little Utah ski team that we can give to, and just, maybe, equipment or something to help that youth hockey team,” Meredith Gaudreau said. “Or there's another family that is affected by drunken recklessness, driving, just to help, help other families that have been faced with tragedy.”
