on unconditional waivers for the purposes of terminating his contract, just 12 days after signing him as a free agent.
An NHL source told ESPN that the Coyotes discovered an"off-ice situation" impacting Galchenyuk that was previously unknown to the team. The NHLPA said it is reviewing the decision on the behalf of Galchenyuk, who will become an unrestricted free agent again. The Scottsdale Police Department told The Athletic that Galchenyuk was arrested on July 9 on several charges, including private property hit and run, disorderly conduct, failure to obey, resisting arrest and threatening or intimidating.
Galchenyuk, 29, had signed a one-year deal worth $775,000 against the NHL salary cap on July 1, the opening day of unrestricted free agency. He was no stranger to the organization, having played for Arizona in 2018-19 and 2021-22 . The expectation was to have Galchenyuk compete for a roster spot in the NHL, but the team had the flexibility to demote him to the AHL since he was on a two-way contract.
"We are very pleased to welcome back Alex to our organization. He is a hard-working, versatile forward who will add depth to our group," Coyotes GM Bill Armstrong said at the time of the signing.
