Profile Contributed By: Matt MacInnis
History
2005-06: Messier had a moderately successful rookie season in the QMJHL, appearing in 57 games for the Baie-Comeau Drakker, scoring four goals and 11 assists.
2006-07: The Boucherville, Quebec native showed significant improvement when given more opportunity to produce, scoring 27 goals and 21 assists in 69 games with the Drakkar. He went goalless in 11 playoff games, however.
Talent Analysis
Messier is an offensively gifted player who has shown flashes of tremendous ability over the past season. However, his limited size will present many challenges as his career progresses. He has stellar all-around offensive abilities that should make him a big-time scorer in the Quebec league over the next two seasons.
Future
Messier will spend at least the next two years in the QMJHL honing his game. Needs to grow over that time and add some strength because those are two of the biggest stumbling blocks he’s facing. Messier has long-shot potential to become a scoring-line player, but he’s at least three years from being a contributor at any pro level, furthermore the NHL.
