Hours after learning of Johnny Gaudreau's death, Columbus radio host Marc Finch pointed the finger at 'management' for the placement of beer during his show.
Columbus Blue Jackets star Johnny Gaudreau and his younger brother, Matthew, were killed on Thursday night at the ages of 31 and 29. The brothers are believed to have been struck by a drunk driver while they were riding their bikes in New Jersey. They were said to have been back in their hometown for their sister's wedding, slated for Friday.
Viewers pointed it out, citing ill timing for, presumably, the advertisement for the beer. Marc 'Chops' Finch, the cohost of 97.1 The Fan's 'Bishop and Friends,' caught wind of the comments, and pointed the finger at his bosses almost immediately. 'Let’s do this right now, sorry - Coors Light is on display. Somebody said that in the YouTube chat right now. Send the emails to upper management,' Finch implored his listeners.
Gaudreau and his brother both played hockey at Boston College. Matthew also played hockey for various minor league teams and had been coaching at the brothers' alma mater, Gloucester Catholic High School, at the time of their deaths. Fox News' Paulina Dedaj contributed to this report.
