Toledo Walleye News Release
Toledo Storm Head Coach and Director of Player Personal Nick Vitucci was excited when discussing Maleyko; "I can't wait to see Jason in a Storm uniform.

His combined totals were four goals and thirteen assists. Jason appeared in ten games against the Storm this past campaign and netted three assists.

A 2003-04 ECHL All Star, Jason is extremely excited on coming to Toledo. "I am looking forward to playing in Toledo for Nick Vitucci. Toledo has a terrific hockey history which I am happy to now be a part of."
