Galbraith's ECHL clubs were to include Florence Pride, Dayton Bombers, Cincinnati Cyclones, Louisiana IceGators, Victoria Salmon Kings and the San Diego Gulls.
Galbraith also spent two seasons at the Pensacola Ice Pilots in Florida (2003/04 and 2004/05) where he played alongside defenceman Corey Neilson, with whom he partnered again later in his career.
The 2006 season saw Galbraith embark on a European venture as he joined SC Riessersee in Garmisch-Partenkirchen in the German minor leagues.
Following the 2013-14 season, Galbraith signed with the Dundee Stars of the EIHL but was eventually unable to join the team however because of visa problems.
