NHL to Honor Gaudreau Brothers with Helmet Decals as Blue Jackets' Merzlikins Unveils Tribute Mask

Elvis Merzlikins' new mask pays homage to Johnny Gaudreau, while the entire league will wear decals in memory of the Gaudreau brothers.

Elvis Merzlikins' new goalie mask features Johnny Gaudreau's No. 13 along with personal touches like a plate of pasta and a beer bottle.
The mask also includes tributes to Merzlikins' late teammate Matiss Kivlenieks and other personal symbols.
The NHL will honor Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau with helmet decals displaying their jersey numbers and the letter 'G'.
These decals will debut during the NHL Global Series games in Prague and be worn league-wide until October 24.
Merzlikins' tribute is part of a broader effort by the Columbus Blue Jackets and the NHL to remember the Gaudreau brothers.
