Signed a two-year contract with Ak Bars (KHL) in July of 2017.
Heading home to Russia
Galiev agreed to terms on a two-year contract with KHL Ak Bars on Friday.
ANALYSIS
After failing to crack the 23-man roster for the Capitals this past season, Galiev will join the KHL. Despite hailing from Russia, the 25-year-old has never played for any European-based club aside from national junior teams. Instead, the winger came up through the QMJHL with the Saint John Sea Dogs before getting selected in the third round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft. Galiev put up a solid 40 points in 56 outings for AHL Hershey last season, so don't be surprised to see him get another look from an NHL club down the road.

Several seasons removed from a promising major-junior career, Galiev’s stock has taken a hit in recent years, but the 23-year-old winger appears to have gotten back on track in 2014-2015. Spending his first full season in the AHL ranks, Galiev rekindled his scoring touch with 25 goals and 45 points in 67 games, buoyed largely by a league-leading 15 goals and 26 points on the power play. With the arrival of right wingers T.J. Oshie and Justin Williams, Galiev is likely to return to AHL Hershey for most of 2015-16, but may find his way to regular playing time in the NHL as early as next season.
