Ryan Malone: Released from tryout

With just a minor-league deal, the veteran would be eligible to play in the 2018 Winter Olympics, which has been his stated goal all along.

Wild's Ryan Malone: Will attend Minnesota's training camp
Ryan Malone will join the Minnesota Wild at training camp on a professional tryout agreement.Malone was expected to retire from professional hockey when he was placed on unconditional waivers by the Rangers in February 2015, but he's evidently had a recent change of heart.
