During high school, she played for the Oakville Jr. Hornets in the Provincial Women's Hockey League (Prov. WHL), where she served as team captain in the 2016–17 season, a season in which she was the league's leading scorer and the Hornets won a 'triple crown' of first place finishes in the regular season, league playoffs, and provincial championship. Her career totals of 55 goals and 92 assists are among the most in Prov. WHL history, and her 147 points are the most in Hornets history. Having committed to Ohio State University as a high school freshman, she played her first season with the Buckeyes in the 2017–18 season. She scored 40 points in 37 games during her rookie NCAA season, leading the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) in points-per-game and breaking the record for most WCHA Rookie of the Month awards, winning four times.
Her production increased to 43 points in 35 games the following season, again leading Ohio State in scoring and being named to the All-WCHA First Team.
In the 2019–20 season, she set an Ohio State record for points with 59 points in 38 games, picking up her 100th collegiate point against Bemidji State Universityon November 2, 2019.[8][9] That year, she was a top-10 finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award and was named to the All-WCHA First Team for the third consecutive season.
In her senior year, the 2020–21 season, Maltais recorded five goals and 16 points in 20 games, leading the Buckeyes with 11 assists. She recorded her 100th career assist against the University of Minnesota on January 29, 2021. She set a Buckeyes record for career playoff points with 14, and for the second consecutive season she was a top-10 finalist for the Patty Kazmaier Award.
