Canadiens to Honor Johnny Gaudreau Today with a Special Gesture, Possible Appearance by a Family Member
The Montreal Canadiens have announced that a nice gesture will be made for Johnny Gaudreau and his family today, and a possible special guest could be present.
As the Habs face the Philadelphia Flyers tonight live from the Bell Centre, the organization will once again show its great class.
In an official statement, the Canadiens announced that, even though it's only a preseason game, a tribute will be made to Matthew and Johnny Gaudreau before the game.
Wow, hats off! The Canadiens have seized the first opportunity to pay tribute to the Gaudreau brothers.
A tribute for Matthew and Johnny Gaudreau tonight at the Bell Centre
See the official statement published for the occasion:
Montreal Canadiens
It will be a beautiful and touching moment.
Moreover, there could be a very special guest tonight at the Bell Centre, as Guy Gaudreau (the father of Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau) was on the ice with the Philadelphia Flyers as a special guest.
Don't be surprised if he's present tonight. What courage!
Rest in peace Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau!
Earlier today, the Canadiens confirmed that Patrik Laine will make his debut with the team tonight:
