Hamilton Bulldogs forward Brendan Gallagher will donate $250 for every Bulldogs win and $20 for every Vancouver Giants victory during the month of November to the Canadian Cancer Society for prostate cancer research.?
?One of my favourite memories as a kid was seeing my grandpa in the stands at my hockey games,? Gallagher said.??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, Gallagher 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?,?Gallagher said.
In eight games with the Bulldogs this season, Gallagher has three goals and three assists. The 5-foot-9, 182-pound forward was the Canadiens? fifth-round pick (147th overall) at the 2010 NHL entry draft.
