During the 2023-24 season, Mailloux’s first season of professional hockey, the prospect scored 14 goals and 33 assists for 47 points and 91 penalty minutes. This performance earned Mailloux All-Star and All-Rookie honors. Eliteprospects.com has Mailloux currently ranked eighth on the Canadiens’ prospect rankings list.
