Ryan Malone (born December 1, 1979 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is an American professional ice hockey forward who currently plays for the Pittsburgh Penguins of the NHL.
Playing Career
Ryan Malone was drafted in the 4th round, 115th overall by the Penguins in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft.
Malone attended Upper St. Clair High School near Pittsburgh for two years. He played hockey during his junior year at Shattuck-St. Mary's in Faribault, Minnesota, a school later attended by Zach Parise and Sidney Crosby. During his senior year, Malone played with the Omaha Lancers of the USHL.
Malone was drafted shortly after graduating high school, and went on to play at St. Cloud State University for four seasons. Malone played 3 games of the 2002-03 AHL season with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins after his last season at St. Cloud State. He played 81 games of his rookie season with the Pittsburgh Penguins during the 2003-04 season. He finished third on the team in scoring Dick Tarnstrom and Aleksey Morozov. Malone did not play with the Penguins again until the 2005-06 season, spending time during 2004 and 2005 in Finland, Italy, and Switzerland.
Playing on a line with Sidney Crosby and Mark Recchi during the 2006-07 season, Malone notched his first four-point NHL game on December 13 against the Philadelphia Flyers. Two days later, he scored his first NHL hat-trick, against the New York Islanders. With this feat, Malone and his father became only the second father-son duo in NHL history to score hat-tricks for the same team. [2]
Malone achieved another career oddity against the Islanders on February 19, 2007, when he recorded his second career hat trick by scoring a goal in the first minute of all three periods. [2]
In January 2008, Malone and defenceman Darryl Sydor were named as alternate captains for the Penguins, following the departure of Mark Recchi and a long-term injury to Gary Roberts.
Family
On February 8, 2008, Malone's wife, Abby, gave birth to their first child, William Ryan.
He is the son of former Penguins player and scout Greg Malone.
