Brendan Gallagher, Jonathan Drouin Down Ducks On Tuesday
6 years agoMontreal Canadiens right wing Brendan Gallagher had his first three-point game of the season during a 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night. The chippy winger scored twice during a three-goal first period and added an assist early in the third frame. Gallagher only has 33 points through 54 games on the season, but with 21 goals, he has a decent shot at reaching the 30-goal plateau for the second-straight year. Jonathan Drouin also tallied three points in the contest. He managed three assists, two shots, and a plus-three rating in 17:09 of ice time. Drouin has rebounded nicely from a dismal 2017-18 campaign with 42 points in 54 games. Furthermore, Jesperi Kotkaniemi is suddenly finding twine with regularity as he scored for his third consecutive game. The Canadiens are rolling right now as they head into a Thursday matchup with the Winnipeg Jets.
