Columbus Blue Jackets’ star player Johnny Gaudreau recently experienced a dramatic accident while driving, but fortunately, he was unhurt.
On Wednesday, as Gaudreau was navigating through New Jersey, his car was struck by a delivery truck that was transporting a brand of craft beers known as “Killer Beers”. The collision was intense, leading to substantial damage to both Gaudreau’s vehicle and the truck.
Despite the severity of the accident, Gaudreau managed to leave his vehicle without assistance and sustained no injuries. Similarly, the truck driver was not harmed.
Authorities were alerted and responded to the accident site to conduct an investigation, which remains ongoing. Presently, it has not been disclosed whether any legal actions will be pursued regarding the incident.
Gaudreau, aged 29, plays a pivotal role in the NHL as a leading athlete for the Blue Jackets, celebrated for his quickness and finesse in the game. His ability to escape injury in real-life scenarios seems to parallel his agility on the ice.
The truck involved was promoting “Killer Beers”, a local craft beer company. It remains uncertain whether the truck driver was distracted or if other factors played a role in the accident.
The Columbus Blue Jackets organization has yet to make a statement concerning the mishap involving their player.
