Incredible gesture set to happen at a hockey rink to honor Johnny Gaudreau

The Gaudreau family took part in a moving tribute at Hollydell Ice Arena-an especially meaningful place, as it's where both Johnny and Matthew birthed their love for the sport.

Before Saturday's NAHL game between the Philadelphia Rebels and the Northeast Generals, the Gaudreau family stepped onto the ice, wearing hoodies honoring the boys.

The most touching moment came with the announcement that Hollydell Ice Arena would be renaming their Futures Rink to «The Gaudreau Rink» in memory of Johnny and Matthew.

For those who knew the brothers, this rink wasn't just any arena; it was their home, where the love for hockey grew alongside their family's unwavering support.

Katie Gaudreau, whose wedding was tragically scheduled for the day after her brothers' passing, closed out the emotional pregame ceremony, surrounded by her family.

Fans, friends, and the sports world have continued to pay tribute to the Gaudreau brothers, and this renaming is another way to keep their memory alive. Though Johnny and Matthew may be gone, their presence will always be felt, especially in the rink where it all began.
