Johnny Gaudreau’s widow, Meredith Gaudreau, gave birth to their third child, seven months after the NHL player’s tragic death.

“I had our third baby! 4/1/25,” she wrote alongside hospital photos via Instagram on Monday. “Another baby boy.”

Meredith went on to introduce Carter Michael Gaudreau, noting that the infant has the “same middle name as his daddy.”

“I love you so much my baby!” Meredith concluded. “We are going to have so much fun. I can’t wait to give you the best life, my special boy forever.”

In the sweet snaps, Meredith posed with her and Johnny’s eldest two children: daughter Noa, 2, and son Johnny, 1.
