Columbus Blue Jackets Star Johnny Gaudreau Dead at 31 in Accident

[Won Won]

So frigging avoidable. 1st the person driving too slow

Looks like the first vehicle moved to the left to give them a little more room, and the drunk took that as an opportunity to split the gap and hit them both. Fault begins and ends with the drunk driver

 

[Guess Who]

Can’t believe this still. Crazy. RIP to both of them.

What time of day did this happen?

Can’t believe this still. Crazy. RIP to both of them.

Every day, about 37 people in the United States die in drunk-driving crashes — that's one person every 39 minutes. In 2022, 13,524 people died in alcohol-impaired driving traffic deaths. These deaths were all preventable.

Crazy numbers


The roads are so dangerous post covid
I see speedster everyday
People on their phones etc

Awful awful news fukk

Damn shame. He and his brother were a year apart, 93 and 94. Played hockey together and everything, they were probably best friends.

So sad. What about the sister and her wedding. Suppose to be one of most joyous times of your life.

Honestly since the pandemic people have been driving hyper aggressive. Like during the shutdown the roads were clear so you could do a little 90. People still drive like no one is on the road. Even if you’re doing 5 to 10 above the speed limit, there always one person who wanna do 120 weaving in and out of traffic.

Ruin my day for real…

RIP to them

I say this in every thread but 9/10 they speeding to absolutely nowhere. Shyts pathetic

 

[Rice N Beans]

Too many people drive like that sober, let alone drunk. Needless death because some slapnuts can't wait the 10 seconds to get past cyclists.

Rest in peace, sad story man.

This is so fukked up man. Being a big hockey fan I check the news every day & I opened the NHL during class & almost yelled out “wtf” in front of my kids.

RIP to both brothers. I was really looking forward to see Johnny play with the young breh Cayden Lindstrom they just drafted



For NBA brehs this would be like Andrew Wiggins passing away. Johnny was a beast as a prep & had some really good all star caliber years in Calgary but his play fell off significantly once he went to Columbus. Still a sad situation

 

[CarolinaKing]

This is why I hate cars. I don't think most human beings have the mental capacity to take responsibility for driving them.

You’re right. There’s a lot of mentally fukked up people in this country and unfortunately a gun or a drivers license are about as easy to get as a McDonald’s cheeseburger.

A drunk driver is like is top 5 POS on my list

Had ESPN on just now and they mentioned that he was a 6 time All Star.

That's a player that's much more accomplished than Wiggins
