Reports have stated that Johnny Gaudreau and his brother recently passed away. Details divulging the tragic news have been shared online.
NHL star Johnny Gaudreau, 31, and his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, were tragically killed after the two were struck down by a passing car in Oldmans Township at approximately 8:30 p.m. on Thursday evening, August 29. According to authorities, the brothers were riding bikes on a rural road in New Jersey called Stumpy Lane when the accident occurred.
Johnny’s hockey team, the Columbus Blue Jackets, posted a statement about his demise on X earlier today, August 30. The lengthy message notes how devastated and shocked the team is by the sad news.
Boasting about how incredible of a player and person Johnny was, their statement divulged, “Johnny was not only a great hockey player, but more significantly a loving husband, father, son, brother and friend.”
They go on to highlight how joyful Johnny would be in every game he played—a joy that was felt by everybody else who got to see the late star play. Johnny always brought his A-game and passion for the sport everywhere he went.

His hockey career took him from Boston College to the Calgary Flames to Team USA to the Blue Jackets, where he served as the team’s winger.
“The impact he had on our organization and our sport was profound, but pales in comparison to the indelible impression he made on everyone who knew him,” mentioned the Columbus Blue Jackets in their statement.
The grieving team went on to reiterate how much the superstar athlete is missed by them and their community and ended their message by asking the public to pray for the Gaudreau family, who are dealing with an unimaginable loss.
The Columbus Blue Jackets also asked that the bereaved family’s privacy be respected. In the same way that Johnny’s hockey team shared a statement about his passing, the Commissioner of the NHL, Gary Bettman, shared some words about the tragedy as well.

“We send our most [heartfelt] condolences to his wife Meredith; their children, Noa and Johnny; his parents, Guy and Jane; and sisters Kristen and Katie,” wrote Gary at the end of his statement.
The devastating news of Johnny and Matthew’s passing comes after numerous reports had first announced that the accident had taken place. However, at the time, the two victims had not been identified as Johnny and Matthew yet.
A report from 6abc Action News discussed the scenario and divulged that the New Jersey State Police disclosed that the person who had been driving the vehicle that struck Johnny and Matthew had stayed on the scene after the accident. Authorities also shared that they believed the driver to be under the influence.
X was also ablaze with announcements about the accident. A woman named Elaine Shircliff posted, “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.”
She added that they could not confirm or deny the rumors that it was indeed Johnny and his brother who were the two victims.
However, on the same day Elaine tweeted her message, another X user named Steve Franklin shared an update of his own. In Steve’s update, he said that his brother, who is a police officer in Salem County, New Jersey, confirmed to him that it was the late NHL star and his brother who died.
After this tweet, Tim Peel, a retired NHL referee, took to X to say, “Reports are that Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew were killed by a drunk driver [tonight]. Please pray that this is not true!”
Here’s Why Some Window Grills Curves At The Bottom, And I Had No Idea
Have you ever noticed windows that seem to have a bulge around the bars or a little potbelly? It’s possible that you’ve been wondering why those bars exist. Are they only decorative, or do they have a purpose?
In this post, we’ll explore the fascinating world of window bars and its peculiar potbellies.
So what is the purpose of the bars on windows?
Since window bars, also known as security bars, have been around for centuries, their primary function has been to protect buildings and residences from intruders and burglaries.
Their function is to protect the windows from unauthorized entrance.
However, not all window bars are created equal. Some people have a distinct feature known as a potbelly. The “potbelly” is a little protrusion or bulge in the middle of the bar.
This unique design feature serves a number of functions and improves window bars’ functionality.
Flower boxes are commonly held in place with potbelly bars. Beautiful flowers and plants have a platform and strong support from the potbelly.
By allowing residents to add some beauty and flora to their windows, this improves the building’s overall appearance.
It would be amazing to go down a street where every window is decorated with bright flowers!
Air conditioning units can be accommodated by window bars with potbellies, which provides another practical usage. Many homes and buildings have air conditioning installed through the windows.
The potbelly’s additional space allows this equipment to be positioned safely.
Fitting window bars with a potbelly will ensure proper ventilation and cooling without compromising security.
If you’re looking for window bars with potbellies for your own home or building, there are a few places you may start looking.
Local hardware stores and home improvement centers provide a variety of window protection choices, including bars with potbellies.
To find the perfect fit for your windows, try out different compositions, styles, and coatings.
In addition to established merchants, the internet is a terrific resource for window bars.
Many online retailers that focus on home security systems provide a wide selection of window bars with potbellies.
You can rapidly browse through a range of products, compare prices, and read user reviews to make an informed decision.
When choosing window bars, it’s crucial to consider both the specific needs of your windows and the level of security you want.
For the strongest and longest-lasting bars, look for ones made of durable materials like steel or wrought iron.
It’s important to consider the bars’ appearance and how they will fit in with the overall style of your home or structure.
As soon as you receive your potbellied window bars, it’s imperative that you have them properly fitted. Poor installation can make them less effective and perhaps dangerous.
If you are unsure about the installation process, it is best to consult a professional or the manufacturer.
Keep in mind that while potbelly window bars boost security, they shouldn’t be thought of as the only defense.
It is imperative to have a comprehensive security plan that includes elements such as alarm systems, sturdy doors, and sufficient lighting.
We will work together to create a safe environment for you and your loved ones to live in.
Potbelly window bars are both aesthetically beautiful and practical.
They protect against unauthorized access, provide an extra degree of security, and provide as a platform for flower boxes or air conditioners.
Whether you want to add a little beauty with blooming flowers or boost the safety of your home, window bars with potbellies can be a valuable addition to your windows.
The next time you see a window with bars and a potbelly, you’ll know precisely what it is!
