Maxim Noreau (born May 24, 1987 in Montreal , Québec ) is a Canadian ice hockey player who has been under contract with the ZSC Lions in the National League since 2018 . His brother Samuel is also a hockey player.

Career

After Noreau had launched his career with the West Island Lions in the QMAA , he moved to the Tigres de Victoriaville in 2004 in the Ligue de hockey junior majeur du Québec , where he spent the following three seasons.

On May 22, 2008, Noreau signed an entry level contract with the Minnesota Wild from the National Hockey League . But he spent most of the following two seasons with the farm team, the Houston Eros , in the American Hockey League . In the 2009/10 season he posted 52 scorer points in 76 games and thus played his way into the Second All-Star Team of the AHL. He made his NHL debut for the Wild on April 8, 2010 against the Calgary Flames .

For the 2011/12 season he was transferred from the Wild to the New Jersey Devils in exchange with David McIntyre . He did not play a single game for the Devils, but signed a one-year contract with the National League A club HC Ambrì-Piotta . In his first season with the Leventines, he scored 30 points in 44 games and was then elected to the All-Star Team of the NLA. The contract was extended for another two years. In the 2012/13 season he again held the most important role on the blue line and was the top defender in the league with ten goals and 35 assists.

Noreau left Ambrì in the summer of 2014 with a yield of 102 points from 146 games, spread over three seasons. He then signed a two-year contract with the Colorado Avalanche , but did not play a single game for the team and spent the entire two years in the AHL with the Lake Erie Monsters and the San Antonio Rampage . Both teams were again for an important offensive defender and scored 75 points in 103 games in two seasons.

In April 2016 - he hadn't found a new club in the NHL - he moved again to Switzerland, this time to SC Bern . With Team Canada , he won the Spengler Cup title for the second time after 2012 and was elected to the tournament's All-Star Team. He won the Swiss championship title for the first time in his first year at SCB . At the end of December 2017, he led the Canadian selection as team captain to win the Spengler Cup again and shone in the final as one of the decisive players.

As a result, Noreau was also part of the Canadian squad at the 2018 Winter Olympics , which competed without an NHL player and won the bronze medal. Noreau he was the top defender of the tournament and subsequently appointed as the only Canadian in the All-Star team.

In March 2018 he decided to move to the ZSC Lions .
