Coyotes terminate Galchenyuk's contract 12 days after signing him

Strange. And the release doesn't say it is mutual.

I would guess this marks the end of Galchenyuk's NHL career.

Very weird situation. It has to be something big, for a team to unilaterally do it

Maybe war-related stuff? I know he declared for the USA, but he's grew up in Russia and so maybe has been spouting off.

This guy has done himself zero favors since entering the league. Surely this is the end.

Some NHLers are "suitcases" that have been a lot of teams because they are often sought after by numerous teams.

I don't think this is one of those cases.

Maybe its his dad again. Habs fans say his dad ruined his hockey career by controlling his every step, telling him not listen to coaches, telling him not play in positions the Canadiens wanted to develop him into, etc. inteferred with everything.

He was with Arizona in 2018-19. It is Arizona so possible they don't have any carry-over in anyone with knowledge of the player from 4-5 years ago.

Maybe he refused to wear the mandatory ugly maroon suit. Seems like reasonable grounds for termination.

Very weird, as Galchenyuk had played for Arizona before, so they knew what they were getting into.

Honestly I’m shocked any of that is illegal in Arizona. “I didn’t know I couldn’t do that” should be a perfectly good defence.

1 EDM R Nail Yakupov
2 CBJ D Ryan Murray
3 MTL C Alex Galchenyuk
4 NYI D Griffin Reinhart

2012 has produced some good players (Rielly, H. Lindholm, Dumba, Trouba and Forsberg all went between 5 and 11), but those top 4 ... yikes. Hard to think of a worse draft class. Edmonton might as well throw Galchenyuk a lifeline and complete the set after having the other three on the roster at some point too.
