“One of my favorite memories as a kid was seeing my grandpa in the stands at my hockey games,” said Gallagher.  “After the game he would give me $20 and I would run to the concession stands and buy popcorn for $5 and bring the other $15 home.”  In addition to the $250 being donated after every Bulldogs win, the forward will donate $20 for every Vancouver Giants win in the month of November in memory of his grandfather.  “I am proud that in my last two seasons in junior with the Giants, I was able to help raise $15,000 for prostate cancer research and I hope to continue to raise money in honour of my grandfather”, said Gallagher.
