The NHL community is still reeling from the shocking news of Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew's passing. For the Columbus Blue Jackets, this tragedy hits especially hard as they grapple with the loss of a cherished teammate and leader.

In this incredibly tough time, the Blue Jackets organization, along with the NHLPA, is stepping up to support the team. According to Aaron Portzline, grief counselors will be available to the players, which is a crucial move to help them navigate this significant loss.
It's important for everyone involved to seek out support and know that it's okay to ask for help during such a difficult period.
It's going to take a long time for the heavy cloud of grief to lift after the tragic loss of the Gaudreau brothers.
Every moment we're reminded of their absence, whether it's the start of training camp, the regular season, the NHL All-Star Game, or the upcoming Stadium Series game at Ohio Stadium.
It'll be hard to look at the stalls in the Blue Jackets locker room without thinking of Johnny and the incredible presence he brought to the team.
The absence will be felt deeply every time we gather, and their memories will be with us as we move forward.
Our thoughts are with the Gaudreau family and everyone within the Blue Jackets and Calgary Flames organizations as they face this heartbreaking situation. May they feel overwhelmed with support and love from the hockey world.
