The third overall pick in the 2018 QMJHL Draft, Mavrik Bourque has been an important part of the Shawinigan Cataractes over the last two years. Last season, he scored 25 goals and 54 points in 64 games as a QMJHL rookie. He also played for Canada White at the 2018 Under-17 World Hockey Challenge, scoring three points in five tournament games. His strong rookie season earned him a spot on Team Canada at the Hlinka-Gretzky Cup. Bourque scored one point in five games. He helped the Canadian squad to a silver medal in the tournament.

Bourque has been even better in his second season in the league, putting up 29 goals and 42 assists for 71 points in just 49 games for the Cataractes. He also played two games for Team QMJHL in the Canada-Russia Super Series. Bourque’s season was ended in early-February due to a wrist injury but is expected back for the 2021-22 campaign.


Mavrik Bourque Scouting Report: 2020 NHL Draft #28

 

[Satan]

Anyone know anything about him?

Imagine drafting Ty Dellandrea

but at 30 OA

 

[BigG44]

Wheeler had Bourque at 16. Pronman had him 19. The Bob Father had him at 26.

 

[LT]

I am content with this

 

[Henderson33]

Yayy, a Q player when I can't go watch games...

Still okay with this pick though.

 

[kabidjan18]

So not physical. But without big offensive potential. But not a fast skater.

Where do I sign up...

 

[TheNorthStars]

Wasnt expecting that but okay.

Mavrik is a sick name

 

[Kcb12345]

I'm just happy we didnt go off the board..I'll take it. 2nd best player available

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Sounds like his IQ and awareness is off the charts, Ill take that having to deal with Gurianov trying to leave the D zone.

 

[serp]

Thats the first time Stars took a QMJHL player in the first few rounds in forever .

 

[MBTendy]

Wheeler had Bourque at 16. Pronman had him 19. The Bob Father had him at 26.

Yup, hard to be upset with this pick.

 

[Satan]

 

[Ghost of Kyiv]

I'm pleased. Didn't expect him at all.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

He also did put up 71 in 49 games in his draft year..

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Small forward and from the Q. Are we sure Dallas picked this guy? Either way I love this pick it’s a boom or bust

 

[Satan]

Imagine drafting Ty Dellandrea

but at 30 OA

[WhoahNow]

[MrHeiskanen]

His hockey IQ is unreal. Out of nothing, he’s going to make plays that on one else can see on the ice. Bourque is very effective at putting the puck at the proper space so he can protect the puck. He’s so good at bringing defenders to him. With the occasional head fake or a change of speed; he's shown a real knack for luring defencemen out of passing lanes. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
