Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2008-09: In 60 games with Saskatoon in the SMHL scored 7 goals with 23 assists while accumulating 115 PIM.
2009-10: In his WHL rookie season, McFaull played in 62 games for the Moose Jaw Warriors. He scored 4 goals and added 6 assists for 10 points, while accumulating 70 penalty minutes. In 7 playoff games for the Warriors, McFaull picked up 1 assist and 10 penalty minutes.
2010-11: Playing on one of the meaner defenses in the WHL, McFaull typified the Warriors team spirit with a snarling no-nonsense game. A big stay at home type, McFaull has gotten stronger and continues to focus on clearing the crease and punishing forwards, to the detriment of any offensive game he might develop. Statistically, his 1 goal and 6 assists in 69 games represents a decline in production but his game is based on being solid in his own end.
Talent Analysis
McFaull is a big body with the frame to one day be a shut-down type defenseman. He enjoys the physical part of the game and is more of a stay-at-home type but can provide an occasional offensive spark.
Future
With limited action in pre season, McFaull was returned to Moose Jaw to start the 2011-12 season. He matched last season’s goal scoring totals in his first game, however it is unlikely this represents any sort of offensive awakening. Projecting as a third line pairing, McFaull will need to focus on steadiness in his own end.
