There’s been a lot of action lately in Brossard for the Montreal Canadiens.

The vast majority of the players are now in town.

Something special is clearly happening within this team.

The players are on a mission!

“When a young team is hungry for victory, it’s extremely dangerous!”
– Renaud Lavoie

That said, even though pretty much all the players are there, one in particular is absent.

That being said, there’s an excellent reason to explain his absence.

Brendan Gallagher has a very good reason for his absence and should be back shortly

As reported by the excellent Karine Hains, Gallagher is at his brother’s wedding.

“Wondering why Brendan Gallagher isn’t skating in Brossard yet? He’s got a very good reason, since his brother got married” – Karine Hains

It’s his wife Emma Fortin who shared the photos.

So, we can expect Gallagher to join his teammates afterwards, and more importantly, to be fully ready for the start of Canadiens training camp.

Brendan Gallagher, 33 years old, is a 5-foot-9, 185-pound forward who put up a solid 38 points in 82 games last season, including 21 goals, and has 464 career points in the NHL.

We love this player and wish him another great season!
