Sujet: Players that would be nhl caliber without injuries
Brendan Gallagher is currently a player for the Montreal Canadiens but he hasn't been his former self due to an injury. Brendan Gallagher is one of the most liked players in Montreal Canadiens history. He is a short but feisty winger which is why everybody likes him. He started off his career by being a consistent 40-50 point scorer. He maintained this production for 9 years in the NHL until mid way through the 2020-21 season where he took a 100 mile per hour shot to the hand. Luckily he came back in time for the playoffs. He wasn't the same and you can tell. During the season he was on pace to have 54 points until the injury. During the playoffs he only had 6 points in 22 games. The next season wasn't any better as he only had 24 points in 56 games. He would have only had 35 points if he played the whole season. Everybody had hope that he would turn it around and he didn't. He missed 2/3 of the season and only would have had 31 points if he played the whole season. This season he has been worse. He is on pace to play the whole season but he hasn't been good. He only has 16 points in 48 games. That means he is on a 28 point pace. His contract does not end until 2027 but the way his career is going right now, it looks like Montreal might even buyout his contract. Gallagher was one of my favourite players growing up and it is horrible to see what has happened to him

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_92</b></div><div>He gave up 6 goals on 21 shots to the 5th worst team in the league, shoulda had 2 of those for sure, maybe 3.

Before that he gave up 5 goals on 14 shots to the 6th worst team in the league.

Before that he again gave up 6 goals on 35 shots to the same 5th worst team in the league.

It’s not even just the amount of goals he gives up, it’s the quality and the timing of them. It’s just awful and it’s not what a championship contending team can have if they’re serious about competing. I understand you’re logic of supporting him and trying to encourage him because it’s purely a mental issue and not a physical or technical with him - but at what point do you say “hey we just need saves” and hold the player accountable? He’s a pro athlete, he signed up for this. If he doesn’t like the pressure of the NHL then go back to the KHL.</div></div>

I agree with him going back to the KHL but maybe for a season and then he can return if he is better. I really hope he returns to his former self
