The circumstances - 2 brothers, together for sister's wedding on Friday (today), hit by a driver DUI. Beyond sad ... absolutely tragic for the Gaudreau family.

Damn both him and his brother the day before his sister's wedding, that's fucked.

whitev70r 08-30-2024 07:00 AM

Circumstances different but Kobe Bryant incident like ... 2 members of a family, tragic sudden death.

bobbinka 08-30-2024 07:12 AM

just horrible for the family....

murd0c 08-30-2024 07:28 AM

two kids 2 and under, both Johnny and his bro were groomsmen for their sister. Talk about beyond horrible and sad.

The only good thing about it is this happen in the US and for a fact this guy will get life in prison. I had a buddy killed by a drunk driver she was 16 at the time and she didn't even have to spend a day in prison and only received a 2 year driving ban..

i doubt the guy will get life in prison. usually vehicular homicide is treated far below something like first or second degree murder. the alcohol factor might make it worse, but killing someone riding a bicycle is usually a slap on the wrist. maybe since it's a higher profile case it will be different.

he told the officer he had 4-5 beers which you just know is going to be untrue. when you have 3 beers you tell the officer you had 1-2, when you had 10 beers you tell the officer you had 4-5.

Hondaracer 08-30-2024 07:59 AM

Pretty sure at that point they are taking blood from you after you killed a couple people.

Plenty of pain being felt in Calgary now among the fans there as Gaudreau played for the Flames for nine seasons.

I have a friend, born and raised in Calgary, who is heartbroken now. An unimaginable tragedy for the Gaudreau family.

The Calgary radio show “The Big Show” is focussed solely on this terrible news now.

One of the radio show hosts played an audio clip of one of Johnny’s goals in a playoff game for the Flames. It was the “The Big Show” way of honouring the life of Johnny as an all star NHL player.

Gaudreau’s OT winning playoff goal in round 1, game 7 between the Flames and Stars:

Unbelievable. Fucking horrible for their family. Can not imagine the pain all of them are feeling but especially their sister.
No way that fuck had 4 beers because you aren't "forgetting" how many you had at that point.

mb_ 08-30-2024 09:39 AM

RIP :( Just devastating all around. Fuck drunk drivers.

Gumby 08-30-2024 09:52 AM

According to police, a driver of a Jeep Grand Cherokee hit two "pedalcyclists," identified as the Gaudreaus, from behind while trying to pass an SUV on the right that had moved over to make way for the two cyclists. Police, who responded to the scene in Oldmans Township, New Jersey, at 8:19 p.m., said both Gaudreaus suffered fatal injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene some 35 miles south of Philadelphia.

...

According to the probable cause affidavit, Higgins told police that he had five or six beers before the crash and had tried to go around the SUV on the right side after thinking the other vehicle was trying to block him from passing. He told police his drinking contributed to "his impatience and reckless driving." Higgins failed a field sobriety test, according to the affidavit.

wtf... So the car in front moved over to the left to give more space for the Gaudreaus cycling and the driver took that as an opening to slip to the right and did he just floor it or something. :fulloffuck:

whitev70r 08-30-2024 11:26 AM
