There is NO PLACE in the NHL for this

It is rare that NHL fans can agree on much, but Brendan Gallagher's dirty elbow hit on Adam Pelech in tonights matchup between the New York Islanders and the Montreal Canadiens was one I think we can all agree has NO PLACE in hockey. In a game that marked the return of legend Patrick Roy to Montreal as new coach of the Islanders, it was actually a really good game! There was a nice moment where the Canadiens honoured Roy during the Canadian Anthem as well. As for the game, the Canadiens came out of the gate hot and were up by 3 after 20. They were up by 2 heading into the 3rd when Brendan Gallagher decided to lay a disgusting hit on Islanders Adam Pelech. He caught him right on the chin with a nasty elbow and received a match penalty getting ejected from the game. This allowed the Islanders a 5 minute powerplay to get back into the game. I cover it all in todays NHL hockey video!

Can't wait to see who makes him pay for this one, and if he turtles (which I expect he will) I hope they keep after him till he stands up like a man and faces the music.

Great point. The League really doesn't care about the players - they are just parts to a machine that produces profits. parts can get replaced - there is an endless supply. The NHL in it's current state is a corrupt monopoly with no oversight, they are above the law in many cases. Just ask the Chicago Blackhawks about how they muzzled Kyle Beach for years over his molestations by Brad Aldrich or protected Bobby Hull from the police on domestic abuse charges. It's simply all about the money, it always has been. The League cheated and stole from it's players for decades before they unionized and got player agents to represent them. It's history with respect to players safety and well being is bleak. They speak to improve things but much is the same as it has always been. The NHL does not lead - it follows slowly. It is slow to learn, slow to admit failure, slow to change, it is run by a dinosaur who hasn't had an original or inspiring thing to say in decades. Yet they play ads saying how the game could possibly be better ? It sounds like russian propaganda, saying the opposite to the truth to turn logic on ot's head. There is a ton they could do to make it better. Like removing the grotesque moving ads on the boards for a start. Improving awful refereeing, it is currently the worst I have ever seen. Defining League Rats and aggressively penalizing them so they stop cheating the game. Suspensions to be tied to injury time, so Gallaghers head shot = time off for injured player. If such a system was in place, hits like his would stop. But the League doesn't want it to stop - controversey sells tickets. This is the unsaid truth to the current state of the game - profits over safety, profits over fan enjoyment, profits over pain and suffering. Sadly, the NHL is just another greedy, sloppily run buisness with it's priorities backward.

Monahan is basically paid league minimum on an expiring contract, can play on any line and wing, 5v5, special team, you name it. I think every single team looking to do any damage in the postseason will AT LEAST enquire about him to the Habs GM before the TDL. I can see AT LEAST 8 teams that would look so much better with him in their lineup, with NONE of the usual cap gymnastics usually required to get such a rental. He's been paired with the most snake bitten forward all season and still produce well, and is such a dream to coach. Oh I forgot one last thing. One top of his defensive play, he's a wizard for faceoffs. Better stats than Matthews at almost 56% of the 700+ FO he took so far. Signing the guy for that 1 year 1.2M contract was genius man, but I never thought he'd get that good that fast given the huge injuries he had to fight the past 3 seasons. I wonder what MTL is looking for in exchange. Would picks only be okay or what? What do you guys think they would want? On the actual subject : I don't think I ever saw Gallagher do something like that; he's annoying, sure, but something so blatant and dangerous? It's weird. Habs fans, was he interviewed about it? WTH?

I'm a life-long Habs fan and I've never been a big fan of Gallagher. When he was a "good" player, he was responsible for more disallowed goals than any player I have ever seen, in fact, he probably was responsible for as many disallowed goals as goals he scored. He's always been one of the more physical players on the team but this hit is just stupid. Let guys like Marchand do crap like that, it's way below the standard in Montreal. Give him the suspension and get on with it....and if he keeps doing stupid stuff, it might be time to think about a buy out.

I think a good way to reduce the number of hits like this that occur are significant financial penalties. Pelech earns $70,000 per game, so make Gallagher pay Pelech's salary for every game that he misses to injury. Also, Gallagher should forfeit his per-game salary for every game he misses during his suspension, as well as whatever pathetically low the NHL fines him. If Pelech out for 10 games and Gallagher receives a 5 game suspension, he'd have to pay Pelech $701, 000 and lose $396,000. Losing $1,097,000 - now that's a deterrent!

Gally has been one of my favorite habs for years, but it is seriously time for him to retire, he is more of a detriment to the habs this year.

wow. I love a good legal hit, but propelling yourself into a person with the elbo into a guy that's had many concussions, that's very dirty.

Absolutely disgusting. He doesn’t deserve to be a HAB. But Gallagher doesn’t care. He knows he’ll get the NHL bare minimum.

It really sucks, Gally is one of my Fav habs player, always putting his body on the line but that hit was dirty. Definitely worth 3-5 games

No. It’s worth maximum fine and a year long suspension. YOU DEMANDED Sheifele get 4 PLAYOFF GAMES for a 100% clean hit, (don’t even bother fighting me, I’ll destroy your argument ) so now YOU have to live by YOUR rules. Too bad, so sad

@@KyleJon Not again... Clean hit??? The puck was nowhere close to Evans FFS... That 4 game suspension was deserved. Back on topic: Gally deserves a 5-7 game suspension for this & a serious fine.

Solche Aktionen sind absolut Hirnlos und sind nur dazu gedacht, den Gegenspieler zu verletzen anstelle ihn fair zu checken und in so aus dem Spiel zu nehmen. Meiner Meinung nach wird hier eine Verletzung des Gegenspielers in Kauf genommen . Das schadet dem Sport und der Sicherheit der Spieler.

Isn't the overall goal total of this game, the same amount Patrick Roy let in his last game as a Montreal Canadian?

No matter how good Roy is, how good he was in net, how much good he's done as a coach... there's always going to be that one trou de cul that remembers his last game in Montreal.

Suspend him for as long as the injured player is out. It should be the rule. You injure someone with an illegal hit you are suspended for as long as the injured player is out

Considering Gallagher received a 5 game suspension, I'd move on. I am a habs fan and I love Gallagher just like anyone who would have Marchand or Gallagher or in their team would love them (or at least would have at some point in their career....not saying that they are equal or similar players, just saying that you love them when they're on your team, not so much when they aren't).....That being said, I'm going to be disgusted if 6'3 Pelech decides to put and end to 5'9 Gallagher next time they play each other.....
