Brendan Gallagher has been part of the Canadiens organization for a long, long time. The feisty little forward also looks set to become the “oldest” Canadiens player on the team’s books. As you can see, there’s a link here with the Carey Price situation.Price, who could change his address at any moment – especially since this morning – is the longest-serving member of the Montreal organization at the moment. And he’s closely followed by Brendan Gallagher, who was drafted by the Habs in 2010 (five years after Price).We’re truly witnessing the birth of a new chapter in Montreal…

[content-ads] When we think of the 2010s with the Canadiens, we think of Max Pacioretty, Carey Price, Tomas Plekanec, David Desharnais, Brendan Gallagher, Andrei Markov, P.K. Subban, Jeff Petry, Phillip Danault, Alex Galchenyuk… Today, among these names, we can only count Gally and Price among the players under contract with the Canadiens. And if Price leaves – which he clearly could soon -… it will make Gallagher the oldest player in the organization, which is special in a way.We’re talking about a player who’s (only) 33 years old… But it also indicates that the Habs are ready to take the next step.

The likes of Caufield, Suzuki, Demidov, Hutson and company are likely to lead the team in the coming years… and in terms of on-ice success, there’s a lot of optimism in town right now. Will they be able to accomplish the ultimate goal of bringing the Stanley Cup back to the metropolis?

Only time will tell… [spacer title=’Overtime’] – Sick.

– Allez Félix!

– Wow.
