Can’t keep texting everyone my dad just passed away. It’s gut wrenching. He fought so hard to have 1 more day of goodbyes today. The Goyens clan lost a grandfather, father, brother, uncle and my 1st hockey coach & fan. To those who read his books read 1 chapter for him tonight
Not how anyone wanted season to end. Henri & I ask u put on that team swag, take a pic & add to this thread. Henri will be thrilled. Pas comment on imaginait la fin de la saison. Mémoires au-dessus regrets Hockey la grande famille

Haven’t seen these guys in 6 weeks. Surprise visit. Stealth mode, hiding on the couch. The grind of a hockey season for a coach is just as demanding and more so for the ones who stay behind. Family is everything.
