Prospect Info: 217th pick overall - Ty Gallagher
- Thread starter Fenway
- Start date

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

At first glance, Gallagher seems like just another junior-level, bottom-pair defender without any clear standouts to his game. However, anyone who watches a Ty Gallagher shift will notice one constant: discipline. He does not cut corners and always tries to go the extra mile. His lack of standout tools and his lack of consistency might be a detractor to scouts, but he is decent at everything: rush neutralizations, box-outs, stick checking, body checking, breakout passes, and defensive zone activations are all tools he uses to play a sound, almost mechanical game in his own zone.

He could be, after all he is a 7th round pick, but then again, he has all the potential to be a very good college player, and get a pro contract.

Thought was going in 4th round
excellent 7th round all around

Hmm maybe Sweeney has learned from the last six years. Good to hear. There's always room for redemption. I'm always impressed when someone can step away from their baser instincts and rethink their modus operandi.

This is going to sound absurd for a 7th rounder, but I had a late first round grade on this player.
Awful usage from a terrible new coach caused this guy’s stock to plummet this year.
Gallagher is a two way defenseman who is slightly more offensively inclined. He has an elite shot from the point. The type of shot that can beat goalies clean. He also has good offensive instincts and playmaking. He’s not flashy, but he’s a PP type. Defensively, he’s right around average. Size isn’t bad either. Skating is a little below average. I think he has top pair potential.
