Could Brendan Gallagher actually be traded?
n this video, we break down one of the most fascinating questions facing the Montreal Canadiens this offseason: what is Brendan Gallagher's value on the trade market in 2026?
Gallagher remains one of the most respected leaders in the NHL and continues to be a heart-and-soul player for the Canadiens. But with several years remaining on his contract and a significant cap hit, would another team be willing to take on the deal? Would Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton need to add a sweetener to make a trade happen? Could Montreal retain salary to increase Gallagher's value? And if so, what kind of asset could the Canadiens realistically get back in return?
We examine Gallagher's recent production, leadership impact, contract situation, and potential trade destinations while discussing whether moving the veteran winger would make sense for both the player and the organization.
