Alexandre Mallet (born May 22, 1992) is a Canadian professional ice hockey forward currently playing for the Brûleurs de Loups of the Ligue Magnus.
Mallet began his major junior career in 2009 with the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). He was traded to the Rimouski Océanic in 2010. After an impressive 2011–12 with the Océanic in which he scored 81 points in 68 games, Mallet was drafted by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2nd round (57th overall) in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft.
Mallet started his professional career with the then Canucks' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate Chicago Wolves in the 2012–13 season. Unable to find his place on the roster, Mallet was sent down to the Kalamazoo Wings of the ECHL. On November 25, 2014 Mallet was traded along with a 2016 3rd Round Pick to the New York Islanders in exchange for defenceman Andrey Pedan.[1]
Mallet played the remainder of the 2014–15 season with the Stockton Thunder, the Islanders ECHL affiliate. The Islanders did not tender a qualifying offer and at the end of the season, Mallet became a free agent. On August 3, 2015, Mallet was signed by his former team, the Kalamazoo Wings of the ECHL.
After four seasons in North America, Mallet opted to pursue a career abroad, agreeing to a one-year contract with Czech Liga outfit, HC Dynamo Pardubice on July 16, 2016. He moved to HC Kometa Brno, winning the Czech ELH Trophy in 2016–17,[2] and winning it again in 2017–18.
After three seasons with Brno, Mallet left as a free agent to sign a one-year contract with fellow Czech club, HC Vítkovice Ridera, on August 20, 2019.[3]
