Habs fan here.
Gally needs to be suspended. I was so mad at him for doing this. I still am.
I proud myself in saying that the habs haven't been a dirty team for a couple seasons now. I like where we're going.
This has no place in our team. I'm fully comfortable if they throw the book at him.
That was the most intentional dirty hit I’ve seen in a long time.
Wtf Gallagher
I've been saying for years what a dirty little rat Gallagher is, while everyone else says, " he's a gritty little guy who jumps into the trenches and takes a licking." Glad he is finally proving me right.
Oh my textbook training video for officials.
This used to be encouraged ,,,,this ain’t nothing compared to kariya , lindros and the career Enders to some of the Bruins players in early 2010s
Raffi Torres would have gotten 20 games.
Fuck the Habs
some one will kick his ass when / if he returns
