Canucks are not seeing much of ‘the real Brendan Gallagher’

1. He’s an AHL player now. Hes small, he’s slow, he has no offense, and he’s below average at defending.

   What is he good at now? He does try, I will give him that. He puts in an honest effort. Which I guess is actually kind of the reason we got him?

2. i have no issue of that, he doesnt need to play every game

3. On ice so far he has been a little disappointing.I understand he is not 25 anymore,but he doesnt even muck it up really.

4. I won’t let any of you forget how you moaned all last season about the acquisition of Evander Kane and complained that he was taking a spot from a younger-but-never-named player. He finished the season with stats not that far behind Jake “I didn’t sign-up for a rebuild” DeBrusk, but, clearly ahead of your hometown hero Brendan Gallagher.
   THEN, you all damn-near paraded in the streets when GMRJ acquired Gallagher for this season. The Canucks weren’t rebuilding last season when they acquired Kane. They’re supposedly rebuilding this season, but, when they’re trading for Gallagher, signing Schenn and Oleksiak, and retaining EP40, Demko, Boeser, DeBrusk and Hronek, who in their right mind would call it a proper “rebuild”?

5. There is a reason players typically retire by the age of 35; their skills deteriorate and there is not way for them to be the player they once were.
   Gallagher has had many injuries over his career and he no longer is physically capable of being a full time NHL player anymore.

6. I love Gally but he’s clearly lost a step. He’s a hockey legend. This year will not deter from his reputation. That said he’s a shell of his former self. This will be his last year in the league.

7. Idgaf. Bro is here to vibe w the rebuild. Be a leader in the locker room. Let him be
