A Quebecer received some great news just before the official start of hockey season.
Maxime Pellerin has been invited to the Montreal Canadiens' upcoming rookie camp. The forward just finished a strong final season in the QMJHL.
The captain of the Victoriaville Tigres for the past three seasons has interesting potential. He is solid at both ends of the ice and possesses the qualities needed for a professional career.
However, Pellerin will need to make the most of his opportunity with the Canadiens' prospects. He will have to stand out among other young players, most of whom have already been drafted.
