The passing of Johnny Gaudreau has hit the Columbus Blue Jackets extremely hard, and that is especially true for his wife Meredith Gaudreau, and his daughter Noa.
Today was a very special day for Noa as she turned two years old. Of course, this is her first birthday without her father, which is truly heartbreaking. Her mom has had to deal with a lot and the birthday was probably very hard to celebrate. However, she had some help from the entire Blue Jackets organization and it was truly heartwarming.
Below, you can see that Blue Jackets players showed up to Noa's birthday and posed for a massive group picture. It was truly amazing to see and it just goes to show that the Blue Jackets have really come together throughout this horrible and horrific tragedy.
Our heart continues to go out to the Gaudreau family during this extremely difficult time. We cannot begin to imagine what kind of pain they are all going through right now. We hope that those affected are able to find peace and comfort as they continue to navigate this horrible situation.
