Johnny Gaudreau

Wrote a review for

First of all, what a great lost of an amazing sport man. Rest in peace, Gaudreau 🕊


Up until I read this book, I knew nothing about Johnny Gaudreau. As I read this book to my son and watched many videos of him playing hockey, without a doubt his playing was amazing. Especially as this book stated that he statically "too" small to be a hockey player. He proved that being "small" in the sport full of "big-tall-board" boys and men was not a problem. He was truly inspirational.


"Gaudreau may be small, but his talent is huge." (Page 27)


This book smoothly albeit briefly presented Gaudreau playing statics from his promosing pre-NHL to his successful career in NHL.


There was this ironic sentences in this book, "Hockey fans seemed to agree that the future looked bright for the five-foot-nine winger." (Page 27)

Again, what a great lost!


This book didn't mention about his passing. But I needed to tell my son. He was also sad because he watched in videos how great his hockey was.


Thank you to Erin Nicks, Flux, Press Box Books, and NetGalley for the ARC.
