The Arizona Coyotes have made a statement following the contract termination of Alex Galchenyuk.
"We are aware of the incident involving Alex Galchenyuk and strongly condemn this type of behavior. Once the Club was made aware of the allegations, we immediately began the process of terminating his Standard Player's Contract through the proper channels in conjunction with the National Hockey League. As a result, the Arizona Coyotes today have exercised the team's right to terminate the contract of Alex Galchenyuk due to a material breach of the terms of his Standard Player's Contract. The Club will have no further comment at this time."
Galchenyuk was arrested July 9th for property hit and run, disorderly conduct, failure to obey, resisting arrest and threatening or intimidating.
He was just signed back on July 1st by the Arizona Coyotes but has since been let go by the club.
