The 6’3 forward from Burlington, Ontario is coming off his first year as a pro which he played with the Manitoba Moose after spending four years in the NCAA with Cornell University. He scored 14 goals (tied for second in the AHL for rookies) and also led Manitoba in goals scored.

We spoke to him as part of our end of season Moose roundtable which you can watch/listen to here.

Malott turns 25 this year.

Some of his goals: May 14 | May 6 | April 22 | April 12 | April 10 | April 8 | March 25 | March 10 | March 8 | March 6 (2 goals) | March 1 |

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
