A look at Alex Galchenyuk's NHL career
Alex Galchenyuk's NHL career has been a rollercoaster ride filled with ups and downs, trades, and team changes.
He made his debut with the Montreal Canadiens in the 2012-2013 season as a rookie, becoming the youngest player in almost 30 years to play a full season with the Canadiens.
Galchenyuk showcased his offensive skills, tallying 27 points in 48 games and helping the team secure the second-best record in the Eastern Conference.
Despite injuries and inconsistent production, Galchenyuk continued to develop with the Canadiens, achieving personal milestones such as his first NHL goal and a career-first hat-trick. However, in 2018, he was traded to the Arizona Coyotes in exchange for Max Domi.
Galchenyuk had a decent season with the Coyotes, contributing 19 goals and 22 assists in 72 games.
Subsequently, Galchenyuk found himself traded once again, this time to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Unfortunately, injuries limited his performance, and he recorded only 5 goals and 17 points in 45 games. He then joined the Minnesota Wild but was quickly on the move again, signing with the Ottawa Senators as a free agent in 2020.
However, Galchenyuk struggled to find his rhythm with the Senators, spending a significant amount of time as a healthy scratch. He was subsequently traded to the Carolina Hurricanes.
Now, After a brief return to the Arizona Coyotes, Alex Galchenyuk's future remains uncertain.
