Recent reports provide information on how much money Johnny Gaudreau's widow will receive
Recent reports have surfaced that provides information explaining how much money Meredith Gaudreau will receive from the NHL after the tragic death of her husband, Johnny Gaudreau.
Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau were both victims of a drunk driver who took their lives over a week ago. The hockey community and the Gaudreau family continue to grieve this tragic loss, but now it's time for the Gaudreau family to prepare for the brother's funeral.
Since this tragedy many have been questioning the National Hockey League's insurance policy and what Johnny Gaudreau's wife Meredith will receive.
According to recent reports, Meredith Gaudreau will receive one year's worth of his salary plus $1 million. Johnny Gaudreau's salary was to be 9.75 million dollars for the 2024-2025 season. However, it's unknown if Johnny had personal life insurance, which if he did it's likely that she will receive more than that.
sections 23.6 (c) of the collective bargaining agreement state the following concerning a player's death:
23.6 (c) In the event of the death of a Player, the Player's spouse at the time of the Player's death shall have the right to elect continuation of coverage for her lifetime, provided that the Player would have otherwise qualified for such continuation under Sections 23.6(a) or b.
At the end of the day no amount of money will ever make the Gaudreau family feel better about losing their loved ones, and they would rather have both Johnny and Matthew back.
