50 Players, 50 Days: Max Osborne

May 27, 2020

Max Osborne had two points in two games at the 2020 NAHL Top Prospects Tournament.

During the current and unforeseen cancelation of the 2019-20 season, the players in the NAHL saw their seasons cut prematurely short. In some cases, players saw their junior hockey careers come to an end as well. However, the NAHL got together a decided to highlight some of those players, who were born in 1999 and were in their final season of playing junior hockey.

As a result, we present a new series entitled: 50 players in 50 days

50 players in 50 days will select 50 players from each of the 26 NAHL teams this past season that were born in 1999, are currently uncommitted, and deserve some recognition during their time spent playing and developing in the NAHL. Over the course of the next 50 days, we will take time out to look at their accomplishments, review their season, and provide some background on their NAHL careers. Players will be initially highlighted in alphabetical order by team. Enjoy!

“We were fortunate to acquire Max in a trade after Christmas and his impact was immediately felt. Max is an extremely smart player, with great anticipation and ability to find and create seems. He works hard at both ends of the ice and is very poised under pressure.
