NHL star Johnny Gaudreau died in a traffic accident last August. Now his wife Meredith has given birth to the couple's third child.

"He looks just like his dad", the widow writes on her Instagram account, according to Aftonbladet.

During a memorial service in September last year, Meredith Gaudreau revealed that she was in her ninth week of pregnancy when 31-year-old Johnny Gaudreau and his two-year-younger brother Matt died in an accident after being hit during a bike ride.

Matt's wife was also pregnant with the couple's first child at the time of the accident and in December she gave birth to a son, according to Aftonbladet.

Johnny Gaudreau – nicknamed "Johnny Hockey" – played a total of ten seasons in the NHL, eight in Calgary Flames before moving to Columbus Blue Jackets.
