For some time now, Brendan Gallagher has been struggling. He has his moments, but otherwise, it's been tougher than usual.

Fortunately, the Gally era is coming to an end.

According to Mitch Gallo, co-host of a radio show (Campbell vs Gallo) on TSN 690, #11 should be left out of the lineup from time to time from now on. That's good news, and it takes guts to do that to a veteran like him.

That takes guts, because Gallagher gave his all for the Habs. He has played 898 games in the big league, scoring 245 goals and 239 assists.

He was born to be a member of the team and will retire as a member of the team. He's still being paid $6.5 million until the end of next season, but it's high time to move on to something else.

With Cole Caufield's return, who Renaud Lavoie says has the flu, it's not Alexandre Texier's turn to step up. The worst forward—”>it's flat to say —, it's Gally.

Speaking of Caufield, Lavoie didn't see him yesterday at the Canadian Tire Center.
