The Arizona/Phoenix connection that Brad Treliving has continues as the Calgary Flames added former-Coyotes General Manager Don Maloney to the scouting staff as a pro scout. Maloney served as the Coyotes' GM from 2007 until the end of this past season.

In what seems like a step-down from his previous role, Maloney's role is a little unclear though it could potentially serve as a potential replacement for Tood Woodcroft, the Flames' former scouting director who joined the Winnipeg Jets as an assistant coach.
