Gallagher tallied twice during Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Gallagher's 14th and 15th goals of the season are too little too late, as Montreal will miss the playoffs and his totals continue an offensive decline from the 30-goal, 50-point campaigns of his mid-20s. While there's still depth value in his game, he's only also seen a career-low in ice time with 13:47 per game, which has likely contributed to his diminished returns.

Gallagher scored two goals and registered an assist in a 9-3 victory over Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Nonetheless, Gallagher is no longer much of a fantasy asset at this stage in his career -- he has just 23 points through 70 games this season.
