Montreal Canadiens' GM Marc Bergevin said Saturday the club won't match Carolina's one-year, US$6.1-million offer for the 21-year-old restricted free agent.

The Montreal Canadiens have named Jean-François Houle as the new head coach for the club's American Hockey League affiliate. He will help develop the Canadiens' young prospects.

Speaking Friday, Philadelphia Flyers coach Alain said he didn't believe Gallagher was seriously hurt because he was talking for nearly five minutes to referees.
