Alex Galchenyuk isn't worried about his fluctuating ice time. "I'm a young player," said the 19-year-old. "I can't be down, I can't let the ice time get in my head. I have to keep pushing forward to get better whether I'm playing two minutes or 18 minutes." In his last five games, he logged under 10 minutes of action twice in matches against Toronto and Boston. During his other appearances over that span, Galchenyuk saw at least 14 minutes of ice time and he contributed two goals and one assist. He has 20 points in 31 games this year.
