Report: Galchenyuk's talks with Canadiens on hold as he looks for new agent

Contract negotiations between the Montreal Canadiens and Alex Galchenyuk look to have been put on the back burner.

The two sides have put talks on hold while the forward looks for a new agent to negotiate his contract, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

Galchenyuk reportedly fired agent Ian Pulver, and a deal can't be made until a new agent is hired.

The 21-year-old restricted free agent is coming off his first 20-goal season. He added 26 assists for 46 points in 80 games.
