Fantasy Focus: Brendan Gallagher
–
It was a pretty solid showing from Montreal’s little pest, Brendan Gallagher, during the 2014-2015 season as he broke the 20-goal plateau for the first time in his career. Will he eclipse that again in 2015-16?

The Alex Galchenyuk contract ‘saga’ has come to an end as on Thursday night, the club announced that they have signed the 21 year old to a two year deal. Financial terms weren’t officially disclosed but it carries a cap hit of $2.8 million.
Andrei Markov’s over usage by Michel Therrien became a big story for the Habs, especially in the postseason where he was clearly worn down. Next season, how much should he play in order to prevent that from happening again?
The signing of Alexander Semin late last week came as a surprise to many. While there’s no denying his talent, there’s also no denying that he had a terrible 2013-14 season. Do our writers think his poor showing was a fluke or a sign of things to come?
The Canadiens announced Friday that they agreed to terms on a one-year contract with free agent winger Alexander Semin. Financial terms were not officially disclosed but the deal is reportedly worth $1.1 million.
With reports surfacing earlier this week that talks between the Habs and Alex Galchenyuk have stalled, there are many who are beginning to get frustrated with the lack of progress. However, it’s way too early to be concerned that a deal hasn’t been reached yet.
We’re well into the offseason and the Habs are still in need of adding some scoring help. While there aren’t top line guys still available at this point, there are still quite a few free agents who could aid the Canadiens up front.
There’s always something to complain about, isn’t there? A 50-win season for the Canadiens, one of the most dominating goaltending performances we’ve seen by a Habs backstopper ever and a second round playoff loss many felt hard done by.
Mac Bennett was supposed to be one of the more interesting rookies to follow last year for the Hamilton Bulldogs but his rookie season was underwhelming to say the least. As a result, he finds himself on the hot seat heading into 2015-16.
It took right up until the deadline where qualifying offers expire but on Wednesday, the Habs put pen to paper with Jarred Tinordi, signing him to a one year deal. He accepted his qualifying offer which will pay him $850,500 in the NHL.
