I have some pretty cool news. I have accepted an offer to run the Columbus Blue Jackets site on Amazing opportunity and I can't wait to get started. Our page is currently under construction but will be finished soon.

I'll never forget that Johnny Hockey chose Columbus. He upset many people with that decision and was hated for it, But people in Columbus loved it and Fell in love with him because he embraced our city.

I have sent a few emails and am trying to get in touch with every contact I've made around the league for info about this rumor.
Praying this isn't real.

Sean was asked what his favorite story about Johnny is. He said there's so many, but his favorite moment was when Johnny found out Meredith was pregnant for the first time.

Sean said he thinks about Johnny everyday. Was going to be living three doors down from one another. His best friend and is going to miss him the rest of his life.

Spoke with the New Jersey State Police and was informed they are getting bombarded with phone calls and cannot release any information at this time.
Basically they can not confirm or deny the rumor that Johnny Gaudreau has passed.

I never thought in a million years when I started covering the
#CBJ
that I'd need to post a story about a current player passing away. It just happened three years ago, surely it couldn't happen again. Today has been the hardest day I've had in a long time. This hurts
It is with tremendous sadness, that I must report this. I was absolutely devastated when I got confirmation of this and didn't want to believe it.
Johnny was a good man and will be sorely missed.
Please keep his young family in your thoughts.

Sadly, Don Waddell has been through something like this before with Dany Heatley in 2003, and the death of Dan Snyder. If anyone can guide the
#CBJ
through this, I trust him.
It's been a long, exhausting weekend, both mentally and physically. But I can tell you with 100% honesty, that YOU

fans helped me, as well as a lot of other people get thru this. Also, all the fans from around the league who I've been interacting with have been
“The way I describe Columbus is similar to the way I describe John. You have to come out and find out for yourself, and then once you know it, you love it”
Meredith Gaudreau with a message to the Fifth Line and Columbus during the eulogy for Johnny Gaudreau:
Sports figures will always tell you that they're not role models. They're just people who play a sport and make mistakes in life just like us normal people.
Athletes like Johnny Gaudreau are supposed to be immortal. This isn't supposed to happen to them.
This was a completely
I can't believe how many tweets I'm seeing from people criticizing Gudbranson. It was not selfish. It was not reckless. He policed the ice since the refs would not. Most people would be crying if he hadn't stuck up for himself.

April 16, 2019: The Columbus Blue Jackets defeat Tampa Bay 7-3 in Game 4 of the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs to sweep the series from the Presidents’ Trophy winning Lightning.
Sorry to inconvenience you, dude. He didn't want to wait for the Gaudreau Brothers, and now he can't be bothered to stay in jail for a week. Pardon my anger.

The alleged drunk driver Sean Higgins is upset he is being held in jail till next week.
Everything I think to type after reading this will get my accounted suspended. Quoted from the NY Post.

Also, I know this is really late. But during the vigil on the plaza last week for the Gaudreau Brothers, Cole Sillinger spoke.
I've meant to bring this up for days now, but I have just been too occupied.
Cole's brief speech was from the heart and genuine. Hearing him speak
I hope they think about bringing the Johnny memorial inside like they did for Kivi. It could rain tonight and that would destroy a lot of it. We've been lucky it hasn't rained yet.

Hey "men", you have to stop attacking female sports fans simply because they're women and you think you know more than them. Newsflash, you probably don't. Thank Yew
Coach has to have his players back in public. Especially against a player like Tom Wilson. No excuses to defend Tom Wilson.
Behind closed doors ok. But it public, he has to. Just my opinion.
See y'all tomorrow.
