When I watch Max on the ice and aslo follow his career, I keep thinking of another Kooteney Ice alumni in Jarret Stoll, a solid 3rd line centre, who is very good defensively, good on the draw, but also has very good offensive skills; however not a big point producer. Max and Stoll both also have very good slap shots, and I can see Max sometimes in the future playing the point for the Flames like Stoll has occasionally done in his career.
You win with guys like these (Stoll has been to two finals and won once).
