Last week, Alex Galchenyuk's life was about to change drastically after being arrested by the police. The former Canadiens forward also refused to cooperate with the authorities and allegedly used highly inappropriate language.

We've just learned that he has made a request that will change everything for the future. He is entering the NHL and NHLPA player assistance program.
What's more, Alex has taken the trouble to contact the authorities involved in Scottsdale, Arizona, to apologize for his inappropriate behavior.

The damage is done. It doesn't fix anything, but it's a good start. Galchenyuk needs help and he's reached out.
Let's hope he can overcome his demons and get back to health soon.
