Patrik Laine and Johnny Gaudreau were teammates with the Columbus Blue Jackets for two seasons.

They quickly formed a friendship. Laine, like many others, was deeply affected by the sad news of the Gaudreau brothers' passing.
A journalist recently highlighted an interesting fact from the past few months. While the new Canadiens forward was part of the NHL Players' Assistance Program, Johnny Gaudreau had made sure to offer his support to his friend.
During the end-of-season reviews, Gaudreau spoke about Patrik Laine to the media representatives. When we say he was a genuinely caring person, here's another small piece of evidence:
«I just re-listened to the audio from Johnny Gaudreau's end-of-season availability in April. He ended by talking about Patrik Laine being in the assistance program at that time.»

«They're not alone in the city. They have us, so we need to be there for them.»

«We all thanked him and wished him a good summer. Who would have thought these would be our last words to him?»

And the journalist adds:

«If there's one thing I hope Gaudreau will be remembered for, it's how deeply he cared about the people in his life.» - Mark Scheig
