Gallant plays a creative, high-speed game focused on creating and exploiting gaps in coverage. He shifts wide, dragging the defence with him, and then cuts inside. Give-and-gos, hard drives, and quick cutbacks to find the trailer all became commonplace in his game down the stretch. -EliteProspects 2025 NHL Draft Guide
