The Ottawa Senators have selected right hand defenseman Maxence Guenette for their final selection in the 2019 NHL draft.
Maxence Guenette is 6’1, hailing from Val D’Or of the QMJHL. During the 2018/2019 season, he scored 32 points (8 goals, 24 assists) in 68 games played. In a draft where the Sens have seemed to have reached in most their picks, Guenette was actually ranked 57th among North American skaters from the QMJHL; so maybe he’ll surprise us all one day.
You can never have enough defensemen in the organization considering the long development time required and the limited amount of players who truly make an impact.
