It's been one year to the day since tragedy struck, forever changing the Blue Jackets and the rest of the hockey world. Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew were taken from us far too early. Their legacy is a heartwarming one that gives us inspiration and strength.
When Johnny Hockey chose to sign in Columbus, I simply could not believe it. He was easily the most notable free agent to ever take his talents to Central Ohio, coming off of a season where he finished second in the entire NHL in scoring.
I will be honest when I say this: it did not make sense to me.
