Galchenyuk was assigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
It's been a turbulent season for Galchenyuk, as he's been traded twice already. He'll look to find his game in the AHL. The 27-year-old has never played in the minors before, and he should be designated for a top-six role immediately.

Galchenyuk was designated for the taxi squad Wednesday, CapFriendly reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk will have to earn his way to a spot on the active roster after being acquired by the Leafs via trade. The 27-year-old winger struggled to break into the lineup with the Senators, a task that won't be any easier given the Leafs' veteran depth.

Galchenyuk was traded from Carolina to the Maple Leafs on Monday in exchange for Yegor Korshkov and David Warsofsky.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk was waived Sunday after the Hurricanes acquired him from Ottawa but went unclaimed. Assuming he hasn't left Canada yet, he won't require the 14-day quarantine before joining the Maple Leafs. The 27-year-old has one goal and a minus-6 rating in eight games this season.

Galchenyuk was waived by the Hurricanes on Sunday, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk and Cedric Paquette were traded from the Senators to the Hurricanes on Saturday in exchange for Ryan Dzingel. To improve roster flexibility, the Hurricanes waived Galchenyuk so they can designate him for the taxi squad. In turn, Galchenyuk will wait until he clears waivers before crossing the border and heading to Carolina. He won't be available for Monday's game against the Blue Jackets as a result.

The Senators traded Galchenyuk and Cedric Paquette to the Hurricanes for Ryan Dzingel on Saturday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk needed a change of scenery after posting one point and a minus-6 rating over the first eight games, averaging 9:30 of ice time in that stretch. The Hurricanes will be Galchenyuk's sixth team in four seasons. The 27-year-old generated more than 15 goals in five straight seasons before dropping off severely last year. According to NHL writer John Shannon, Galchenyuk won't require a quarantine, and he could play in Monday's game versus the Blue Jackets.

Galchenyuk signed a one-year, $1.05 million contract with the Senators on Wednesday, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk logged 59 games split between the Wild and Penguins last season, totaling eight goals and 24 points over that span. The 26-year-old forward eclipsed the 40-point mark in four consecutive campaigns prior to his down year in 2019-20, so if he gets top-six minutes with Ottawa next season, he could be worth a look as a depth piece during next year's fantasy drafts.

General Manager Bill Guerin said Wednesday that it's unlikely that Galchenyuk will return to the Wild next season, Jessi Pierce of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Galchenyuk played out the final year of his three-year, $14.7 million contract with the Wild after being traded from the Penguins in February. The Russian produced just eight goals and 24 points - both career lows - across 59 games with the Penguins and Wild in 2019-20. Galchenyuk's pending departure will open a spot for a younger player in the lineup for Minnesota, and it's unclear what sort of suitors Galchenyuk will have on the open market.
