Blue Jackets forward <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/player\/sean-monahan-8477497\" title=\"Sean Monahan\">Sean Monahan<\/a>, a good friend of Gaudreau, and Backlund, lined up for the draw with both teams surrounding the family.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt speaks to our leadership group, [Monahan] obviously being on top of that,\u201d Columbus coach Dean Evason said. \u201cJust conducting himself in a professional manner and not shying away from showing his emotion and using it to move us forward. To see the family here and the outpouring of love and support of this organization, this city and this country, Canada, has been fantastic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Monahan played nine seasons in Calgary and eight with Gaudreau. He signed a five-year contract with the Blue Jackets on July 1, expecting to be reunited with his former Flames teammate. The Blue Jackets forward has been playing the entire season with a heavy heart.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat meant a lot. I think a lot about him,\u201d Backlund said of Monahan. \u201cFor him to move to Columbus to be reunited with Johnny, they were so excited to get to play with each other. For [Monahan] to have to go through that every day, it\u2019s just heartbreaking and I think a lot about him. It was great to share that moment with him and show the support and love for the family.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/news\/calgary-flames-columbus-blue-jackets-honor-johnny-gaudreau-with-pregame-tribute\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both teams lined up at their respective blue lines and watched a video tribute highlighting Gaudreau\u2019s time in Calgary to a rendition of \u201cJohnny B.
