#2. Alex Galchenyuk
Playing on his fourth team in three years, Galchenyuk could use some stability.
His contract has been a true reason why he hasn’t been able to secure a home-base. At $4.9 million per season, he’s making too much money and not giving teams enough in return, so it’s made him an easy trade-chip.
However, if Galchenyuk were smart and believed in himself, he should sign a low one-year deal for the 2020-21 season as a try-out on a good team, like Toronto.
Teams always hoped that Galchenyuk would transition into a centre, but left-wing has been a better fit for him, which is perfect as that’s Toronto’s weakest forward position.
Galchenyuk could slide perfectly into the second-line left-winger slot and play on a line with either Auston Matthews or John Tavares and quite possibly find that 30-goal season he previously had in Montreal.
If the price is right, Galchenyuk would be a great addition.
