Johnny Gaudreau's passing has heavily affected Jeremy Swayman's situation
The Boston Bruins goalie, Jeremy Swayman will have to put business on hold for the time being.
The reason? Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Gaudreau were struck by a drunk driver in rural New Jersey and killed, by 43 year old, Sean Higgins.
The hockey world has been in mourning since the loss of both brothers on August 29th.
You'd wonder how both of these deaths would affect business with Jeremy Swayman? Well, like Johnny Gaudreau, he shares the same agent, Lewis Gross, who represented both brothers.
Business matters have been put temporarily on hold while grieving continues.
«Money never drove these boys, family did. When John returned to Boston College for his joinor year, rejecting the contract Calgary offered. He said, 'Lewis, tell them, no. I want to play with my brother next year at BC.'
"When we sent Matt to Sweden to play one season he called after a week there and said, 'I want to get out of the contract. I miss Madeline and my family, they mean more to me than hockey.'»
Money and a new contract will be on the way soon for the Bruins and Swayman, but we mourn the passing of the Gaudreau Brothers who were gone way too soon.
