Would you take him right now in your team top 6?

There is 0 argument to be made that he is not a top 6 quality forward. I understand some teams may have 2 better RWs, but that's like, what, less than a handful?

Yup

 

[heretik27]

We're playing Wheeler and Ehlers on the RW in our top six right now, Stastny/Connor on the LW. I think the only player he'd have a shot at bumping is Stastny. Definitely think he's a solid top 6 winger though, for a small guy he scores a lot of dirty goals. You need players like that in the playoffs that aren't afraid to muck it up around the net.

 

[Ace of Hades]

Yes, easily over Tanner Pearson.

 

[koyvoo]

I think something like only 12 RWs who scored at a 25+ goal clip in each of the past 3 seasons. He’s one of them, but there’s argument that he isn’t even a 2nd liner?

 

[dukeofjive]

Yes and pls dear lord don't ever leave mtl

What do Auston Matthews, Alexander Ovechkin and Leon Draisaitl have in common?

They're the only 3 players to score more ES goals than Gallagher from 2018-19 thru today.

Drai has 1 more ES goal than Gallagher in 14 more games, and each of the 3 has at least 300+ minutes more TOI than Gallagher.

That's an insane statistic and anyone who says it's not top-6 production has some kind of absurd agenda.

 

[CupInSIX]

No because I want Tuch to get more top 6 ice time.

[David Suzuki]

Lol unless you have an all star team of course you do.

 

[Crow]

Easily for the hawks.

 

[NyQuil]

Sure.

Give me Gallagher and Brady Tkachuk on the same team.

 

[Trade]

Always thought he’d be a perfect winger for Sid

 

[Hockey Stick]

Anybody that says no is a liar

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Yes, but if he’s your best winger you’re in trouble. Love Gally and his work ethic, but at the end of the day he’s just not that skilled.

 

[Habs 4 Life]

Yes on the Habs
I just hope he can keep his play up for the lenght of his contract!!

 

[Machinehead]

Why would you not?

Is there a single team in the league with four wingers better?

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

He'd be great in Pittsburgh. Especially in terms of replacing what they lost with the Hornqvist trade and the things Hornqvist brought to the table.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Why would somebody not want Gallagher in their top 6...?

 

[Captain97]

You know that guy who scores 30 goals consistently when he isn't having his hands destroyed twice by slapshots oh and after healthy he's back to the same pace and is also a possession monster.

He is easily a top 62 winger in the NHL let alone a top 124. Name me one team where Gallagher isn't a top 6 forward. Only one that's a maybe for me is Winnipeg but even then I'm pretty sure he beats out Stastny as long as one of the RW can move to the left.

 

[Pyrophorus]

At times.

 

[NyQuil]

It's one of those polls where virtually everyone agrees and yet a couple of folks are still outraged in the comments.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Yep! There’s no quit in that kid. I’d be happy to have him on the Avs.

 

[Connor McConnor]

Him + a goalie and the Oilers are Cup contenders. So yeah I'd love him.
