Press Release
The Vancouver Giants are excited to welcome back one of the most popular players in team history on Saturday, February 15.
On this night, Giants’ all-time leading scorer and current spark-plug for the Montreal Canadiens, BRENDAN GALLAGHER, will be inducted into the Giants ‘Ring of Honour’ in a pre-game ceremony. Fans are encouraged to get to their seats early as we pay tribute to one of the most exciting players to ever wear a Giants uniform.
Drafted in the 9th Round of the 2007 WHL Bantam Draft, Gallagher went on to play 244 regular season games in a Giants uniform and set team records for most goals (136) and most points (280) in a career. He was selected by the Montreal Canadiens in the 5th Round, 147th overall, in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft and has since become a fan-favourite in Montreal.
The first 5,000 fans at the Saturday, February 15 game vs the Portland Winterhawks (7:00pm face-off) will receive a commemorative 8x10 collector piece, while 111 random lucky fans will get to meet Brendan during the game.
