The diminutive forward plays bigger than his actual size as Brendan Gallagher can energize a line with his tenacious forechecking, feisty and fearless playing style. Makes his living by positioning himself in front of the net, trying to get under goaltender’s skin and battles hard looking for deflections, rebounds or lose pucks. Possesses a good shot, but will score most of his goals by crashing the net. His playing style will ask strength and endurance from him and can wear him down during longer shifts. Is a role model for smaller players to sustain in today’s game. (by Rafik Soliman, December 2014)
