The Montreal Canadiens are not going to make any rash decisions.

Despite the team's current slump, which has seen them drop outside the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference, they are unwilling to part with forward Alex Galchenyuk, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman said during Hockey Night in Canada's "Headlines" segment Saturday night.

According to Friedman, "a couple of teams" contacted the Canadiens to see if Galchenyuk would be available in a deal and were told he wasn't.

The 21-year-old sits fourth on the team with 10 goals and 27 points in 47 games.
