During the night, Brendan Gallagher announced the death of his mother. This is obviously horrible news for the new father.

When seeing the news, it was easy to wonder what it meant for tonight’s game, with the Islanders. But what needs to be understood is that the news was announced yesterday, but the death did not occur yesterday.

Renaud Lavoie discussed the topic in his daily column on BPM Sports: Della Gallagher passed away last week, while the habs were in the West.

We thought it was going to be tough because it was his first trip since the birth of his daughter, but it was also for another reason.

Gally missed some practices and hasn’t spoken to the media since then, but he has been faithful to his post during games. He has been helping his teammates on the ice in this playoff run and has played the last games in mourning.

He’s a pro through and through, this Gally. He is an inspiration for the habs family.

The habs forward, who is the player with the most seniority among the team’s active players, wants to do everything to participate in the playoffs this season. Even if it means postponing his mourning…

Let’s look at his line. During Tuesday’s game, which was the most important game of the season, he played his best game. Josh Anderson, who is perhaps the most injured guy in uniform in Montreal right now, also gave it his all.

It’s that line (with Christian Dvorak, who was on fire) that led the habs to their most important win of the season.

If some guys on the team see that and are not inspired, they don’t belong in Montreal. Anderson and Gally are the perfect guys to support Nick Suzuki, who has been carrying the team on his shoulders for a month.

Will it bring the habs to the playoffs? To be seen.
