NHL player Johnny Gaudreau of the Columbus Blue Jackets has been killed after being hit by a car while riding a bicycle in his home state of New Jersey. He was 31.
Absolutely devastating story. Gaudreau was supposed to be in his sister's wedding today. Instead, he and his brother were stuck by a drunk driver while cycling last night.
This is absolutely awful. I hope the drunk driver is put in jail and never allowed to drive again. That poor family... The sister's anniversary will always be remembered for her brothers dying instead of the happy day it was supposed to be.
I imagine they are gonna throw the book against the driver. All the prosecution has to do is put his sister on the stand and any jury will want to give the maximum sentence allowed.
