| Dec. 22, 2024 | Malatesta was loaned to AHL Cleveland on Sunday. - Malatesta was recalled by the Blue Jackets on Wednesday, and he made two appearances for Columbus during his time in the NHL. He logged six hits, a blocked shot and a minus-1 rating while averaging 10:34 of ice time, but he'll head back to the minors just before the league's Christmas break. | None |
| Dec. 18, 2024 | Malatesta was called up from AHL Cleveland on Wednesday. - Malatesta has six goals, 12 points and 25 PIM over 25 appearances with Cleveland in 2024-25. He hasn't yet played in the NHL this year, but he logged two goals and four points across 11 outings with the Blue Jackets last season. | None |
| Oct. 7, 2024 | Malatesta was assigned to AHL Cleveland on Monday. - Malatesta generated 12 goals and 22 points in 56 contests with Columbus' top minor-league affiliate during the 2023-24 regular season. He could be back in the NHL this campaign if additional injuries arise. | None |
| Oct. 4, 2024 | Malatesta was called up from the minors Friday. - Malatesta saw action in 11 regular-season games for the Jackets last year in which he generated two goals, two assists and 12 shots while dishing out 41 hits. Even with his decent performance in limited game time last year, the 21-year-old winger will likely have to start the upcoming season in the minors with AHL Cleveland. Don't be surprised to see Malatesta reassigned following Friday's preseason tilt versus Pittsburgh. | None |
| April 16, 2024 | Malatesta was reassigned to AHL Cleveland on Tuesday. - Malatesta scored in the first period of Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes. He earned four points over 11 contests at the NHL level. The 20-year-old winger is set to join the Monsters for their playoff run. | None |
| March 23, 2024 | Malatesta was recalled from AHL Cleveland on Saturday. - Malatesta could make his NHL debut Saturday against Vegas, with the Blue Jackets dealing with a rash of forwards up front. The 20-year-old Malatesta has 12 goals and 21 points in 53 AHL games this season. | None |
| Sept. 20, 2023 | Malatesta scored three goals in two games during the Traverse City Prospect Tournament while skating on both the power play and penalty kill, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official website reports. - The 20-year-old winger is coming off a dazzling conclusion to his junior career, winning MVP awards in both the QMJHL playoffs and the Memorial Cup while leading his Quebec Remparts to both championships. Malatesta erupted for 37 goals and 66 points in 55 games during the regular season before adding 14 goals and 20 points in 18 playoff games last year, and while his 5-foot-9 stature leaves questions about how he'll hold up in the NHL, his strength on his skates and on-ice intensity mark him as a future asset on a checking or energy line. The 2021 fifth-round pick will make his pro debut with AHL Cleveland this season, with an NHL debut potentially following soon after if he adjusts quickly. | None |
