6 years agoMontreal Canadiens right wing Brendan Gallagher netted his first NHL hat trick during a 5-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday. He scored twice in the first 11 minutes of the first period and completed his milestone with a marker early in the second frame. Gallagher is now up to 26 goals, 14 assists, and a plus-10 rating through 61 games. He is proving that he is not a fluke after registering a career-high 31 goals last season.
