Are we talking about Alex Galchenyuk? The former Montreal Canadien was supposed to play in the NHL with the Coyotes this season… but like the franchise, too many bad decisions have meant that both are currently inactive in the NHL.
A mere three days away from Friday’s trade deadline at 3 p.m. ET, we’ve got you covered at Daily Faceoff with at least one trade-focused story every day until Deadline Day.
The NHL began awarding the Conn Smythe Trophy to the most valuable player of the postseason beginning in the 1965 season. How many of the past winners can you name in six minutes?
Alex Galchenyuk issued a statement on Tuesday afternoon that he is entering the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program, while also apologizing for recent disturbing behavior that led to an arrest.
After the police report from the arrest was made public, it appears the Coyotes made the right call in severing ties with the 29-year-old forward who signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the team on July 1.
To the surprise of many on Thursday, the Arizona Coyotes announced they were terminating the contract of Alex Galchenyuk only days after agreeing to a free-agent contract with the forward. Now, details have emerged explaining the Coyotes' reasoning.
