Maxim Masse's Player Profile

Jason Bukala - Sportsnet - June 11th: "Masse has some Brock Boeser and Tyler Toffoli in his game. He isn’t going to blow anyone away in transition, but he has fantastic puck touch and the ability to extend plays below the hash marks in the offensive zone."

Chris Peters - Flo Hockey - June 3rd: "Masse has long looked the part of a future power forward, but he hasn’t really managed to play like it. His game can be a bit too perimeter and while he has good hands and shooting ability, the lack of compete at times makes it harder to see him a high-minutes forward at the NHL level."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - June 3: "But it’s the completeness of his game that really stands out for a player his age. He can penalty kill, he’ll go to the dirty areas and make plays around the net, he battles, and he’s just a well-rounded player who stays around it and goes to the right spots, whether that's swinging to the wall to pick up cycled pucks before defenders do or popping out into the slot at the right time."

Corey Pronman - The Athletic - May 28th: "He's a technically flawed skater and that will be his major challenge in having an NHL career on top of giving inconsistent efforts without the puck. His offensive gifts and size should get him games but he will need to prove to NHL coaches he can be trusted for a regular shift."

Steven Ellis - Daily Faceoff - May 28th: "He was a shot generation machine, registering five or more quite often this year. Masse is a good two-way player with good energy. His skating is lacking compared to others this high in the draft, but there’s been an improvement over the past 12 months."

Sasha Lagarde - Dobber Prospects - Apr. 20th: "Massé thrives below the faceoff circles in the offensive zone, especially around the net and along the boards. He leverages his body well and will find teammates in open space off a cycle. His shot hasn’t been the same weapon as it was last year and his skating has not improved enough to make a difference."
