Profile Contributed By: Glen Erickson
History
2006-07: While teammate Colton Gillies has garnered much of the attention from scouts over the past season, the contribution and development of Justin McCrae has been a pleasant surprise in Saskatoon. The young veteran forward scored 16 goals and 33 assists in 61 games for the Blades, who missed the playoffs this season. A dependable defensive forward, McCrae has completed three seasons in Saskatoon and will be looked upon to continue to lead the club next season, both on and off the ice.
Talent Analysis
A determined performer, McCrae impressed head coach and general manager Lorne Molleken with his grit and all-around skills, much like former Montreal Canadien forward Bob Gainey.
Future
McCrae will need to add some weight and muscle.
