A moment of silence fell over Conte Forum to honor three Eagles greats who died over the summer: Johnny Gaudreau, Matthew Gaudreau, and Tony Voce.

Prior to the national anthem, Boston College will show a tribute video and hold a moment of silence. On top of that, every player will wear a patch on his jersey with the initials TV-JG-MG for the entirety of the 2024-25 season. The patch debuted during the Eagles road series against the Michigan State Spartans last weekend.

Meredith Gaudreau, widow of late Calgary Flames player Johnny Gaudreau, shared an emotional reaction to a recent tribute by Boston College Hockey.

BC will honor Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau and Tony Voce with uniform patches and a sign on the boards in front of the team bench this season.

The impact Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau had on Boston College, both on the ice and around campus, was enormous and far-reaching. Before Friday’s home opener, the Eagles honoured the brothers and Tony Voce in front of an emotional crowd.
