Talent Analysis
A character person both on and off the ice, MacWilliam has established a niche as a rugged defensive defender at the NCAA. A defenseman capable of delivering punishing hits, MacWilliam anticipates the play very well which aids to his ability to lay the body. He’s mobile for his style of game and is capable of moving the puck efficiently from the back-end. Limited offensively, he’ll need to translate his style of game to the pro level.
Future
A sophomore last season with North Dakota, MacWilliam is likely to fulfill his four-years in the NCAA.
Projection: Physical, stay-at-home defenseman.
