NHL insider just disrespected Johnny Gaudreau in the worst way possible
An NHL insider just disrespected Johnny Gaudreau in the worst way possible moments before the start of the NHL regular season.
Monday morning, Frank Seravalli was under a lot of heat from the hockey community after releasing a article with some terrible comments regarding Johnny Gaudreau, and he issued an apology for it.
The entire hockey community, and even people who aren't apart of the hockey community mourned the loss of Johnny Gaudreau, and the world is doing their best to pay their respects to him, and honour his name. There are a lot of plans in place for the regular season for Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau to be honoured.
Unfortunately, this morning NHL insider Frank Seravalli was under fire after disrespecting Johnny Gaudreau in an article posted. Frank Seravalli went on to talk about how Gaudreau's passing would go on to positively impact the Columbus Blue Jackets chances of winning the NHL Draft Lottery this year. It didn't take long for fans to start calling the insider out on it.
Frank Seravalli owned up to his mistake and issued an apology to the hockey community, take a look:
What I wrote and how my poor choice of words was received was not intended to create any hurt or anger. Especially as a member of the Philly hockey community, I've been absolutely gutted by John and Matty's passing - like so many around the hockey world. This tragedy is a difficult topic we're all grappling with and what I wrote was never intended to add to that. Simply put, I should not have tied the two together. I am sorry and I promise to be better.
The hockey community is glad that he owned up to what he said, but that doesn't excuse the fact that he disrespect Johnny Gaudreau. This is still a horrible look for the insider though.
