Johnny Gaudreau's Teammates Brace Him for Return to Calgary in Hilarious Fashion

Johnny Gaudreau will return to Calgary for the first time since joining the Columbus Blue Jackets this summer and is expected to get hammered by the boo-birds.

Gaudreau admitted that he understands fans' frustration on the subject after a rough offseason. That said, nothing will save him from the wrath of Flames' fans.

As such, Gaudreau's teammates gave him a taste of what he can expect on Monday night, and it was hilarious.

Things haven't gone well for the Blue Jackets (14-30-2) this season but not because of Gaudreau. The former Flame leads Columbus in goals (13) and assists (31) and has an 18-point lead on the second best Blue Jacket.

Injuries have decimated their roster, to be fair, but their team wasn't great to begin with.

The Flames (22-16-9) are desperately feeling the absence of Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk, who combined for 219 points last season. Calgary still fields a competitive team every night, but it's hardly the same team as last year.
