The hockey world came to a stand still after the death of Adam Johnson. The passing of the forward had a ripple effect on the entire hockey community. No player was more impacted by his passing than Winnipeg Jets defender Neal Pionk.
For Neal Pionk, Adam Johnson was more than just a former teammate, he was a best friend. Last week shared how the passing of Johnson has impacted him. At Pionk's wedding, Johnson was a groomsman, so tonight was extremely special.
In the first period Pionk scored his first goal of the season to give the Jets a 2-0 lead.
