Playing career

[edit]

Galuzin made his Kontinental Hockey League debut playing with Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod during the inaugural 2008–09 KHL season.[1]

As one of the longest tenured players with Torpedo, Galuzin played the first fourteen seasons of his professional career with the club before leaving as a free agent following the 2018–19 season. On 1 May 2019, Galuzin agreed to a two-year contract with Metallurg Magnitogorsk.[2] In the 2019–20 season, Galuzin struggled to adapt with Magnitogorsk in producing just 1 goal and 2 points in 17 games. On 17 December 2019, Galuzin left Metallurg on mutual grounds to join his third KHL club, Ak Bars Kazan, on a two-year deal.[3]

On 4 July 2020, Galuzin continued his career in the KHL by agreeing to a one-year contract with HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk.[4] In his lone season with Nizhnekamsk in 2020–21, Galuzin contributed with 5 goals and 18 points through 44 regular season games.

As a free agent, Galuzin signed a one-year contract with his fifth KHL club, Amur Khabarovsk, on 11 May 2021.[5]

After splitting the 2021–22 season with Amur and Spartak Moscow, Galuzin signed as a free agent with HC Vityaz on 4 May 2022.[6]
