Playing career
On February 17, 2020, the Vancouver Canucks traded Madden's rights to the Los Angeles Kings, along with Tim Schaller, a second-round pick in 2020, and a conditional fourth-round pick in 2022, in exchange for Tyler Toffoli. [3] Shortly after, on March 30, 2020, Madden signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Kings, choosing to forgo his remaining two years of college eligibility. [4]
Due to the delayed start of the 2020–21 North American hockey season caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many NHL and AHL teams arranged for their prospects to gain playing time overseas. As part of this strategy, Madden was temporarily loaned to Eisbären Berlin, a prominent team in Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL), to continue his development and stay in game shape. However, before Madden could suit up for a game with Berlin, he was recalled by his NHL organization after sustaining an injury. [5] [6]
In his fifth season with the Ontario Reign during the 2024–25 campaign, Madden's time with the Los Angeles Kings organization came to an end when he was traded to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for Joseph Cecconi on February 26, 2025. [7] [8]
As a free agent at the conclusion of his contract with the Wild, Madden left North America and was signed to a one-year contract with German club, Straubing Tigers of the DEL, on July 11, 2025. [9]
