Lachance, who purchased at auction the special warmup jersey that Gallagher wore in 2022, reached out to him after his mother passed away from cancer earlier this year and offered to return this special jersey to him. Gallagher suggested that he exchange his jersey from the last game of the season during the Canadiens’ annual Jerseys Off Our Backs event.

So glad you were able to attend these last 2 games, just wanna say I'm always checking my feed after each game to see if you'll post!
That process felt more awkward and time-consuming than it needed to be.
A Great moment for everyone, Hearts Go Habs Go
Gally – a talented heart and soul player with class and dignity. Love him.
Was this after the game last night?
An obvious beautiful moment for Galllagher (and Lucie!), but what bothers me is that for the past 3 or so seasons, many you guys wanted Gally out: "he's dead weight, overpaid" etc…
With how he's been playing and acting as the trooper he is, do you guys still thinking the same? We're far from the days when McDonald's ( in Québec) were doing their Galchenyuk VS Gallagher burgers promo stuff now. One player has been around the team for 10-12 years, the other is now playing in the KHL after 6 NHL teams (+affiliates). At the very least Galchenyuk is doing fine in the KHL.
Thanks for posting I have been looking for video of this all day. I thought the team would have made a bigger deal about this on their socials.
