Please join us in welcoming The Xtreme’s newest signing, Centennial Cup winning goaltender Wilson Maxfield!

He spoke about his excitement to be headed to Devon for his 20-year-old season saying, “I’ve been talking with Kelly (Head Coach & GM Kelly Buchberger) the last week or two. He expressed a lot of interest in me, and I think the team wanting me to be a part of the team so bad is what really made me want to sign here.”
Maxfield also made more mention of Bunchberger stating, “Having a coach like Kelly with all his NHL experience is awesome.”
He spoke about what he brings to The Xtreme between the pipes saying, “I’m a goalie with lots of size, I move well and I think the biggest part of my game is the way I think it, and the way I read plays.”
Being the first 20-year-old signing for Devon, Maxfield also talked about the leadership aspect he brings saying, “I think I can bring that leadership impact to a brand new team. I’ve been on some good teams the last two years, lots of good culture on those teams, and I hope to bring that to Devon.”
Maxfield closed out the interview wanting to restate his excitement to join The Xtreme for the 2024-25 season.
