The video showed a young Gallagher toe-dragging around a defenceman, then was in all alone on the goalie, when he shoots the puck and runs the goaltender into the net. The puck appeared to have crossed the goal line but the ref waived the goal off for obvious reasons: goaltender interference.
Gallagher then lost it, getting angry with the ref's call, pointing to the puck in the net, and then grabbing the puck to show the ref.
Gallagher saw the post on Thursday afternoon, and had a hilarious response.
"Referee couldn't see with those sweet shades he's got on 🕶" said the 28-year-old.

Gallagher has played this way ever since he entered the league in 2012-13. He plays with his heart on his sleeve, is competitive, and is extremely passionate about the game.
