I loved his production, or at least was satisfied. But it’s the way he played hockey that frustrated me, it just seemed he had a clot in the portion of his brain that relates to hockey. And the kid would just not move his feet, when he wants to stick handle he has to put the brakes on, very frustrating.
Also thought he didn't win nearly enough 1 on 1 battles for a guy with good size, frame and ability. He caused way too many turnovers at both bluelines.
Domi is much more combative in that sense.
But I also think Galchenyuk might have a lot of success playing with Keller, he's the exact kind of player he needs to play with...a puck wizard if you will.
Because while Galchenyuk has impressive hand skills, I thought the less time he had on the puck, the more effective he was. As soon as he got the puck with time and space, he would glide, try to do a million head/shoulder fakes and too often lose the puck or fire it way over the net.
