Canadiens' Brendan Gallagher: Set for one-week absence

Gallagher (lower body) is expected to miss at least a week due to his lower-body injury, the team announced Friday.

Based on the team's timeline, Gallagher figures to be on the shelf for the Habs' next four contests. The 29-year-old winger has struggled offensively this year, as he has just five goals in 43 contests and is in danger of missing the 10-goal threshold for the first time in his 10-year NHL career.
