Tragedy in August
Widow of dead NHL pro is pregnant
The widow of Johnny Geaudreau, the professional ice hockey player who died in a traffic accident in the US state of New Jersey on August 29, is pregnant. As Meredith Gaudreau announced at her husband's funeral service, she is expecting her third child.
"We are actually a family of five. I'm in my ninth week of pregnancy with our third baby. It was a total surprise, John was so excited," the widow revealed on Monday.
When she told Johnny the news, he immediately hugged and kissed her tightly, Meredith continued. Together, the two are already parents to a soon-to-be two-year-old daughter and a seven-month-old son.

However, the children will have to grow up without a father. Gaudreau and his brother Matthew, who is two years younger, were riding bicycles at the end of August when they were hit by a car and fatally injured. The driver is suspected to have been under the influence of alcohol. The brothers had actually wanted to celebrate their sister's wedding the following day.
Nicknamed "Johnny Hockey", Gaudreau first played nine years in the NHL for the Calgary Flames and was about to play his third season with the Columbus Blue Jackets. In his 644 games, he collected 642 scoring points through goals and assists. He also played and scored at the last World Championship in the Czech Republic.
