Tuesday morning, La Presse reported an arrest that took place at Canadiens center Alex Galchenyuk's hotel room over the weekend, following a domestic dispute. As is the case with any story involving the Habs in Montreal, the story blew up.
Clickbait articles were posted, employing deceptive headlines intended to entice readers to click to find out what the 21-year-old player had done. The fact of the matter is, these stories usually involve a male athlete assaulting a woman. This wasn't the case this time around.
Galchenyuk's girlfriend, Chanel Leszczynski, allegedly assaulted him in the early hours of Sunday morning.
