Brendan Gallagher is the undersized, fifth-round sparkplug who defied expectations, carving out a nearly 900-game career through sheer will and relentless net-front presence, historically delivering an almost even split of goals and assists. Now, at 34, while his scoring touch and ice time have diminished, he remains a veteran engine. He's still contributing more assists than goals from the bottom six and never shying from the game's toughest areas.
