Galchenyuk off to a rough start with Coyotes

Just days after signing a one-year contract with the Arizona Coyotes, Alex Galchenyuk is now listed as week-to-week with an upper body injury.

It is not known when exactly Galchenyuk suffered the injury. The 27-year-old has not had luck on his side in recent years, bouncing around for team to team while struggling to find consistency. His 2021-22 season, which could be his last in the NHL if he isn't able to get his career back on track, is off to a frustrating start.

On top of losing Galchenyuk, the Coyotes will also be without defenceman Kyle Capobianco for some time, as he is listed as week-to-week with a lower-body injury. This is tough news for a team who is already expected to struggle immensely in the 2021-22 season.
