The captain of the 2012-2013 U17 national team and Boston
University commit is an intriguing defensive prospect. While he may not be the
fastest or most skilled, his defensive acumen is quite impressive. A very
physical specimen, one of MacLeod’s former coaches considered him one of the
strongest players he had ever coached. While he uses his size effectively in
the defensively game, he has also found success in making smart, simple plays.
A leader who is capable of being a workhorse for his team,
MacLeod makes smart decisions in his own zone. And while offense isn’t necessarily
one of his strengths, the rugged defender does has the vision to make good passes
up ice. He will have some time to continue his development path at BU, which he
will attend in the fall of 2015.
