Brendan Gallagher has lost his mother in recent weeks, who passed away from cancer.
On the occasion, Brendan’s sister, Bree, will run a marathon to raise funds to support brain cancer research at the USC Brain Tumor Center.
The habs players have shown their support for the family by making donations.
Patrik Laine, Kirby Dach, Nick Suzuki, David Savard, Michael Pezzetta, Josh Anderson, Juraj Slafkovsky (and many more)…
The guys wanted to support their teammate in their own way by helping the cause.
It’s worth mentioning. If you want to make a donation to the cause, the link can be found by clicking here.
It’s also worth noting that several players made a donation of $1111 to represent Brendan Gallagher’s #11 jersey. But Patrik Laine gave $5000. That’s generous of him.
A nice thought:
When the players learned of the passing of Gallagher’s mother, they traveled 45 minutes by bus to join Gallagher at his family home in Vancouver.
The guys wanted to be there for him in a difficult moment in his life… and they’re still supporting him in their own way by making donations to help his sister with brain cancer research at the USC Brain Tumor Center.
It’s an admirable gesture.
But again, it shows the strong team spirit.
The players are there for each other on and off the ice, and it proves that the team spirit is strong.
It’s nice to see, especially given that Gallagher is an important player for the Canadiens.
And his teammates know it, apparently.
We love Gally… But his teammates love him too.
