Malcolm's .920 save percentage is also tied for sixth in the ECHL this season, while his three shootout victories are tied for third. He was named CCM/ECHL Goaltender of the Week for Oct. 20-26 after going 2-0-0 with a 0.50 goals against average, .977 save percentage and one shutout.
Under contract with Hartford, Malcolm has been called up to the Wolf Pack twice this season. In 10 appearances, he holds a 6-4-0 record with a 3.40 goals against average and .893 save percentage. In addition, things started extremely well when Malcolm earned five straight wins with Hartford to begin the season, including a 35-save performance in his AHL season-debut on Dec. 12th en route to a 5-3 victory against Worcester.
Last season, the Lethbridge, Alberta native played 27 games with the Road Warriors and posted a 13-9-3 record with a 2.90 goals against average and .912 save percentage. He also started six games with Hartford, where he recorded his first professional win on Nov. 27, 2013, a 4-1 win against Portland. Overall, Malcolm went 1-3-0 with a 2.85 goals against average and .888 save percentage with the Wolf Pack in 2013-14.
Prior to turning pro, the 6'2, 179-pound netminder played four seasons at Yale University, where he finished second among Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) goaltenders in wins (20) during his senior campaign in 2012-13. He completed his collegiate career by posting a 36-save shutout in the national championship game to backstop the Bulldogs to their first-ever Frozen Four title. Overall, Malcolm appeared in 67 games at Yale and earned a record of 36-21-4 with a 2.60 goals against average, a .907 save percentage and six shutouts.
