Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2008-09: Played games for both the Owen Sound Attack and Windsor Spitfires of the OHL. He totaled 15 goals and 20 assists for 35 points in 64 games.
2009-10: MacDermid played for AHL Providence in his first pro season. MacDermid's 155 PMs were the most on the team and he had a -10 plus/minus with two goals and five points in 65 games.
2010-11: MacDermid showed some offensive elements to his game in his second AHL season while once again being among the penalty leaders for Providence. MacDermid scored 7 goals with 12 assists and his plus/minus was a much-improved +3 while his 158 PMs were the second most on the P-Bruins (defenseman Nathan McIver (176) led the club).
Talent Analysis
MacDermid is a physical menace. Big, strong and mean, he hits everything in sight, plays to intimidate and is a willing pugilist. And while his skills are limited, he’s worked hard to improve his overall game and it showed on the scoresheet last season.
Future
MacDermid is becoming one of the AHL’s better enforcers. He’s made strides in every aspect of his game and will look to continue that progression this season. He projects as a Shawn Thornton-type and it looks like the Bruins are grooming MacDermid to be his heir apparent.
