Reports have stated that Johnny Gaudreau and his brother recently passed away. Details divulging the tragic news have been shared online.
NHL star Johnny Gaudreau, 31, and his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, were tragically killed after the two were struck down by a passing car in Oldmans Township at approximately 8:30 p.m. on Thursday evening, August 29. According to authorities, the brothers were riding bikes on a rural road in New Jersey called Stumpy Lane when the accident occurred.
Johnny’s hockey team, the Columbus Blue Jackets, posted a statement about his demise on X earlier today, August 30. The lengthy message notes how devastated and shocked the team is by the sad news.
Boasting about how incredible of a player and person Johnny was, their statement divulged, “Johnny was not only a great hockey player, but more significantly a loving husband, father, son, brother and friend.”
They go on to highlight how joyful Johnny would be in every game he played—a joy that was felt by everybody else who got to see the late star play. Johnny always brought his A-game and passion for the sport everywhere he went.

His hockey career took him from Boston College to the Calgary Flames to Team USA to the Blue Jackets, where he served as the team’s winger.
“The impact he had on our organization and our sport was profound, but pales in comparison to the indelible impression he made on everyone who knew him,” mentioned the Columbus Blue Jackets in their statement.
The grieving team went on to reiterate how much the superstar athlete is missed by them and their community and ended their message by asking the public to pray for the Gaudreau family, who are dealing with an unimaginable loss.
The Columbus Blue Jackets also asked that the bereaved family’s privacy be respected. In the same way that Johnny’s hockey team shared a statement about his passing, the Commissioner of the NHL, Gary Bettman, shared some words about the tragedy as well.

“We send our most [heartfelt] condolences to his wife Meredith; their children, Noa and Johnny; his parents, Guy and Jane; and sisters Kristen and Katie,” wrote Gary at the end of his statement.
The devastating news of Johnny and Matthew’s passing comes after numerous reports had first announced that the accident had taken place. However, at the time, the two victims had not been identified as Johnny and Matthew yet.
A report from 6abc Action News discussed the scenario and divulged that the New Jersey State Police disclosed that the person who had been driving the vehicle that struck Johnny and Matthew had stayed on the scene after the accident. Authorities also shared that they believed the driver to be under the influence.
X was also ablaze with announcements about the accident. A woman named Elaine Shircliff posted, “Spoke with the New Jersey State Police and was informed they are getting bombarded with phone calls and cannot release any information at this time.”
She added that they could not confirm or deny the rumors that it was indeed Johnny and his brother who were the two victims.
However, on the same day Elaine tweeted her message, another X user named Steve Franklin shared an update of his own. In Steve’s update, he said that his brother, who is a police officer in Salem County, New Jersey, confirmed to him that it was the late NHL star and his brother who died.
After this tweet, Tim Peel, a retired NHL referee, took to X to say, “Reports are that Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew were killed by a drunk driver [tonight]. Please pray that this is not true!”
Linda Hunt Leaves Behind A Fortune That Makes Her Family Cry
For many years, Linda Hunt, the renowned actress best known for playing Hetty Lange in the popular television series “NCIS: Los Angeles,” has been adored in the entertainment industry. Many have conjectured about the huge money she leaves behind as word of her departure spreads, reportedly bringing her family to tears.
Over the course of her multi-decade career, Hunt has amassed fortune thanks to her well-known roles in both television and movies. Hunt is well known for her Academy Award–winning role in “The Year of Living Dangerously,” where she became the first actor to win an Oscar for portraying a character of the opposite sex. This accolade goes beyond her work on “NCIS: Los Angeles.” Her long career and several awards have added a substantial amount to her net worth.
Hunt is renowned for having made astute investments throughout the years in addition to her acting salary. Her ownership of real estate and these investments have left her family with a sizeable fortune. Prestigious residences and other priceless possessions that have only risen in value over time are reportedly part of Hunt’s estate.
Her wealth is a result of both her wise financial management and her achievements in Hollywood. The fact that Hunt, who has been characterized as quiet and modest, made sure her loved ones would be well taken care of has caused her family to react emotionally as they come to terms with her legacy.
Although the precise amount of Linda Hunt’s wealth is unknown, it is obvious that her financial impact has equaled her contributions to the entertainment business. Her family’s emotional response is evidence of her influence as an actress and as a cherished family member who made careful plans for their future.
Note that details of her estate and wealth distribution may differ, and the information presented is based on broad sources and hearsay.
