The Blues, with their alumni association, donated a total of $10k to their former player, and former Oiler Kyle Brodziak after his brother and nephew were hit by car. The two family members, Ryan and Ozzy were out just walking their dog when a vehicle drove on the sidewalk and hit them both, and the dog Gouda. Both Ryan and Ozzy are still under medical care, while Gouda has been released from the emergency Veterinary care and is recovering at home. According to the GoFundMe set up earlier this week, Ryan, Kyle's brother suffered a significant spinal cord injury, resulting in multiple fractures to his spine» His 11-month-old son Ozzy, is recovering from skull fractures and at Stollery Children's Hospital in Edmonton. Kyle Brodziak played with the Blues from 2015 to 2018. Their GoFundMe donation of $5,000 was matched by the St. Louis alumni association. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/StLouisBlues/status/1824185978153570580'> </a></blockquote></div> Brodziak began and ended his career in the NHL as an Edmonton Oiler.
