Team USA shares their gold medal and celebrates on the ice with Johnny Gaudreau’s children. Johnny Hockey and his brother were killed by a drunk driver in August 2024, robbing him of this chance to win this gold medal. So Team USA held up his jersey and brought his daughter Noa and his son Johnny on the ice to celebrate while Johnny’s wife and third child, Michael watched. A team full of uncles watching after Johnny’s kids, sharing the spotlight and the biggest moment of their lives with the Gaudreau family. That’s what sports - and more so hockey - is all about

Team USA’s gold medal celebration carried a profound emotional weight, extending far beyond the victory itself. In a moment that transformed the traditional championship photo, players brought Johnny Gaudreau’s children onto the ice and lifted his No. 13 jersey into view, turning a customary snapshot of triumph into a heartfelt tribute defined by remembrance and presence. 🫶🇺🇸

Gaudreau, who died in August 2024 at the age of 31 after being struck by a drunk driver while riding a bicycle with his brother, remained an enduring part of the team’s journey throughout the tournament. His jersey hung in the locker room, his absence deeply felt but never unacknowledged. Including his children in the celebration ensured that, even in loss, he remained woven into the team’s most meaningful moment. 🇺🇸
