The Calgary Flames hired Don Maloney as a pro scout Wednesday.
Maloney joins the Flames after serving nine seasons as the Arizona Coyotes executive vice-president, GM and alternate governor.
Arizona compiled a 326-291-87 record during Maloney’s nine seasons as GM. Three times the club reached the NHL playoffs.
Maloney received the inaugural NHL general manager of the year award in 2010 after the Coyotes posted a 50-25-7 record, the most successful regular season in their history.
Before heading to Arizona, Maloney, a native of Lindsay, Ont., spent 10 seasons with the New York Rangers front office.
Maloney played 13 NHL seasons with the Rangers, Hartford and New York Islanders, registering 564 points (214 goals, 350 assists) in 765 regular-season games. He added 57 points (22 goals, 35 assists) in 94 career playoff contests.
