Scott Maxwell

News and feature writer for Daily Faceoff, Canucks Army and The Leafs Nation. Scott joined the Nation Network in 2016 with Wings Nation, and after stints both there and with the Leafs Nation, he joined Daily Faceoff in 2022. He previously worked at The St. Marys Independent. He provides statistical breakdowns on various topics around the leagues, mostly focused on players and teams, as well as weekly power rankings. When not talking about hockey, Scott will probably have some hot take on movies and music, or will be shamelessly promoting his band, Modern Dandelion (oh, like now). Educated at Wilfrid Laurier University (Honours BA; Digital Media & Journalism) and Conestoga College (Graduate Certificate; Contemporary Media Arts w/ distinction).
