Summary
John Shannon sits down with the newest member of the Vancouver Canucks, Brendan Gallagher, for a conversation about coming home, leaving Montreal behind, and beginning the next chapter of his NHL career. Gallagher discusses the excitement of playing in his hometown and the adjustment that comes with changing teams after spending his entire NHL career with the Canadiens. He reflects on his years in Montreal, some of his favourite memories, and the support he received from teammates through both the highs and the difficult moments of his career. The conversation turns to what Gallagher hopes to bring to Vancouver, including his approach to leadership, building relationships, and finding his place within an established Canucks dressing room. He also talks about the similarities between two passionate Canadian hockey markets and what he's learned about handling the expectations that come with them. Away from the rink, Gallagher shares what life has been like following the recent arrival of his second child and what it means to begin this new stage of his career closer to family. John also closes a chapter for 100% Canucks, announcing Landon Ferraro's departure from the show as he moves on to a new opportunity and thanking him for everything he's brought to the podcast.
