A tragedy beyond comprehension. Two young men with their entire lives in front of them cut so short. I thank them for all they gave us, not in a hockey rink, but in life. They taught us love, family, and spirit is what matters most and I pray we all move forward and learn from them.
I love how Gudbranson kept on checking in on Monahan knowing how tough it must be for him right now... I used to see Monahan at bars/restaurants around Calgary, always with Johnny. Not a single time without. If Mony was there, Johnny was too (and vice versa... although you'd always see Mony first just because of his height). I can't even begin to fathom how gutwrenching this must be for him. I absolutely love how the Blue Jackets took care of Johnny, and I hope y'all will take care of Monahan the same. They're both two birds of the same feather.
As a mother I can not imagine the extreme pain the parents must be going through. My heart and prayers go to the family and friends of these young men. 🙏❤️
Thank you Columbus for this vigil for Johnny and Matt... I'm a Jets fan crying with everybody else at the loss of these boys, gone way too young... my prayers are with their families, for strength for the road ahead.... and also for Johnny's teammates... Rest in peace Johnny and Matthew...
So sorry for your loss, Columbus. Meredith and Johnny CHOSE your town to raise a family and, by all accounts, they were indescribably happy. They loved you. And you loved them back.
I see Sean monahan with so much emotion and he knows Johnny better than the rest of them as his best friend so shakened up he hasn’t spoken openly since. He spoke highly days before on a podcast addressing the excitement of their reunion since Calgary . It’s terrible what happened and feel for the gaudreau family.
I was so lucky to see Johnny play many times in the Battle of Alberta over the years, and I was always a massive fan of his, both as a player and as a man. Seemed like such a deeply decent dude, as I’m absolutely certain Matthew was as well. My heart is shattered for their family, their many friends, and all who loved them. To the entire Gaudreau family, I’m so profoundly sorry for your loss. This is all so wrong. Sending you so much love from Edmonton.
As a Flames fan❤❤❤its hard to forget it both of you 😢❤May you rest in peace Johnny and Maty❤….thanks for everything that you make happy to all the people in the whole world ❤❤❤You are the best #1 player and the best people in life
Thank you CBJ for doing this, everyone needs to grieve and this helps that. Doesn't make it easier but lets everyone come together and we need each other in times like this. Classy move by CBJ and to Calgary fans for their love. Most importantly, to the Gaudreau family to see how much Johnny and Matt were loved. RIP guys.
Comfort and love goes out to the Gaudreau family. As a Philadelphia Flyers fan, Johnny grew up a fan as well, being a mini Flyer, so it breaks my heart knowing he is gone way too soon. I am truly sorry for this horrific loss of the two of these remarkable two men.
I'm from New Jersey and I'm a Devils fan first and a Flames fan second (because I have family in Calgary). I'm so sorry for you guys in Columbus. This is an ENORMOUS loss for you, as it is for Flames fans and the hockey community here in New Jersey. He was the best player to ever come out of our state. I can't believe Johnny Hockey is gone.....RIP Johnny and Matty Gaudreau 💔
As Preds fan. This is still sad to hear and belive it hapend. R.I.P johny and matt, all gonna in The hockey community will miss you. strength to endure for both families, as well as Flames and columbus It doesn't matter which team you're Support still sad for all who watch hockey.
Reach out to your state legislators and tell them about this, see what they can do to strengthen prevention measures in your state. Let’s make sure this never happens to another family. 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️
Seeing a giant like Gudbranson so haartbroken and in tears makes me both resoect him and feel just awful knwong how close he was to the Gaudreaus. RIP Johnny and Matty.
This is just one of the saddest summers ever I’d say I am loss for words my condolences to Johnny and Matt and the family, the reactions of other ppl is what kills us
19:51 Elvis' face pretty says everything Blue Jackets fans have witnessed within the past few years, first Kivlenieks and now both the Gaudreaus' Johnny and Matthew. R.I.P. MK, JG and MG
He’s a headcase and a loser. This is REAL tragedy. Not using your friend/teammates 4th of July accident as a career ladder. Him and his .860 SV% can go be dramatic back in Latvia
Heart breaking my sympathies for there family friends team mates and all that love them may you both Rest inParadis with Jesus by your side playing hockey watch down your love one here John and matt G ❤❤
So sad 😢 Such a HUGE loss not just in the hockey world . But in Leadership role models. My deepest condolences to the families. THE LAW NEEDS TO TAKE DRUNK DRIVING FAR MORE SERIOUSLY !!!!! The penalties for DWI are a friggin joke ! Driving a vehicle is not a RIGHT ! It's a earned privilege... Let's wake up !!!!!!!!!!!!
to those who chose to drink and drive.think twice before you get behind the wheel of a car. not do ruin your life but also the life of those who lost their loved ones
I am so sorry you Last godd young men that hand big hearts best players for nhl then will be missing both bothers. Call a tiaix or friend some7 you k ow well from Lori gray I wach both Johnny and Matthew fell for th7 families 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
If you are unable to express your condolences without inserting your allegiance as a ______ fan, then there is little hope for you. My thoughts and prayers are with the Gaudreau friends and families as they navigate this heartbreaking tragedy.
I think ppl include this less to express their team preference, and more to express the impact Johnny Gaudreau left on the league, and how he made it so easy to be a fan of his, even if he didn’t play for yours.He was easy to love. Rest easy Johnny and Matthew.
Just breaks my heart , being a oiler fan loved all the battle of Alberta. You guys will be dearly missed. R.I.P Johnny and Matthew.🕊️🕊️🌹🌹
As a Flames fan. This really sucks! Mony looks so heart broken. 💔 Rip Johnny Hockey and Matty. 🙏
Looks absolutely devastated. 😢
Still doesn't feel real been watching both Calgary Vigil now this heart breaks for Monny.
A tragedy beyond comprehension. Two young men with their entire lives in front of them cut so short. I thank them for all they gave us, not in a hockey rink, but in life. They taught us love, family, and spirit is what matters most and I pray we all move forward and learn from them.
🌹🌹All of my love to the Gaudreau family and to the Blue Jackets and their fans~A Bruins fan
💔
Ditto 🙏💖
How the actions of 1 person can affect the lives of so many. 😢
I love how Gudbranson kept on checking in on Monahan knowing how tough it must be for him right now... I used to see Monahan at bars/restaurants around Calgary, always with Johnny.

From a non hockey fan in Ohio. Many many prayers to all those affected by this tragedy. ❤️🙏

I’m rooting for the blue jackets this year even as a rangers fan.
Monahan is just completely beside himself. Don’t drink and drive. Spend the $20 on a cab. Call a friend. Do anything but get behind the wheel
So sad this is such a terrible tragedy. The Johnny was liked by everyone in the league and was such a great role model to everyone!
Heart breaking 😢
Our thoughts are with you.

Such a HUGE loss not just in the hockey world . But in Leadership role models.
My deepest condolences to the families.
THE LAW NEEDS TO TAKE DRUNK DRIVING FAR MORE SERIOUSLY !!!!!
The penalties for DWI are a friggin joke !
Driving a vehicle is not a RIGHT !
It's a earned privilege...
Let's wake up !!!!!!!!!!!!
to those who chose to drink and drive.think twice before you get behind the wheel of a car.
not do ruin your life but also the life of those who lost their loved ones
Oh sean :( I know Johnny will still be playing with you from above buddy
I can't feeling this words from their heart! Why the most of the people have read from Letters????
They were amazong Players and Peoples! I think all the Peoples can the right words on there own!
Sorry for all, when I see it wrong!
We missed the slideshow because you decided to zoom in on the crowd?
This is something the CBJ community should never go through again.
My you rest ln peace Jonny and matt gurradu❤
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Goon to soon...........
That one fella in the crowd really needs to learn how to read the room
I hope Columbus wins the cup . Do it for Johnny!

chanting during the pipes was not great timing fellas... RIP Johnny and Matthew
Damn, Monohan is looking really rough, just lost his best bud.

Wow, that's really the turnout? Move the team.
No need to be a dick.
I don’t understand why Sean Monahan didn’t talk. I know them all miss him and will miss him, but Sean Monahan is the one who is with him the longest.
And that’s exactly why he didn’t say anything. It’s still too painful for him to speak.
