airplane fly's at around 35,000ft to 36,000ft to NYC but the cabin pressure is set at 8,000ft so would it affect his head, maybe but I don't really think it would be dangerous. Just a little less pressure pushing the O2 to his lungs

#Habs confirm that Brendan Gallagher is not yet cleared for contact and will not play tonight
I'd leave him out until he's a 100% ready, then even a bit longer. We're winning and he's too good of a young player to bring back early. Maybe if we go into a 2-game slide.

I suspect that if there is a issue with pressure, it is with the changes. Not
neccesarily with the minimum pressure. Kind of like the ear or sinus problem.
But I also wonder about bouncing around if there is turbulence.

Brendan Gallagher va reprendre l'entraînement avec contact demain. Si tout va bien il retournera dans la formation samedi. #RDS #canadiens
Basically. Gallagher will practice tomorrow with contact. If everything goes well, he can probably play Saturday.

the reason it hurts with your sinuses is because there are blocked, so the air that is trapped inside your sinuses expands because there is less air pressure around it as your airplane cabin climbs to 8000feet, as for turbulence unless you're getting absolutely rocked around, it wouldn't matter, I mean I'm sure it doesn't help but not to the point where it would be unbearable.
Don't love Prust on the 4th. While Cole would be wasted there, as he doesn't add truculence, Prust has been better offensively, makes his linemates better and, frankly, has earned top-nine minutes. He has created space for Chuck and they have great chemistry. It's a good problem to have, and I know MT is trying to get Cole going, but at the same time, you wanna ice the best team you can.

I think what MT is doing is great. He brought Gally and Gally along with Prust to take the pressure off them, knowing they had someone who had their back on their line. As they got more comfortable, he puts them with better players and manages their ice time. I wouldn't be surprised if we see both Gally's on the top 2 lines by the end of the season. Prust has helped them along, he now goes back to the 4th line to await his next mission
Gionta, Cole and Desharnais better watch their backs. The kids are coming!

Prust is a team first guy, won't bother him one bit if he ends up on the 4th line, he'll get his ice time on the PK, but you're right he does deserve top 9 minutes, the season will play its self out and they'll end up positioned where they should be come playoff time (if they make it)
