Max-Lajoie

Ottawa Senators‘ 5th round pick in the 2016 (#133 overall) 3rd year defenseman Max Lajoie(58) played the majority of his sophomore season with the big club skating 56 NHL games getting 7 goals and 6 assists (including a 1st goal and an assist in his debut) but was a very woeful -25 rating on a last place club.

He also played 56 AHL games in his rookie season scoring a goal and 14 assists and was also reassigned further down to Brampton Beast for a single ECHL appearance.

Recently recalled for his first game of 2019/2020 in the big league he played 18 shifts for 9:44 ice time with 1 shot, 1 hit and 1 shot block and was part of a 4-1 victory.

He was twice a 30+ assist guy for Swift Current Broncos of the WHL and reached 29 helpers in the other year, so definitely knows how to head man the puck.

The just turned 22-year old is only in the second season of his entry level deal, as he had two slides entering into the terms of the contract.

It seems like he should play his way into sticking at the higher level on a more permanent basis.
