30-Year-Old DefensemanD
San Jose Sharks
2023 Fantasy Outlook
A depth defender for Colorado, MacDonald was dealt to San Jose in late January along with Martin Kaut in exchange for Matt Nieto and Ryan Merkley. He failed to make much of an impact with his new club, posting a goal and six points in 25 games. Now 30 years of age, MacDonald will again find himself battling for a third-pairing role on the still-rebuilding Sharks in 2023-24. Look elsewhere on draft day. Read Past Outlooks

April 6, 2023
MacDonald notched an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche.
ANALYSIS
MacDonald was able to get on the scoresheet against his former team when he helped out on a Steven Lorentz tally in the second period. Through three games in April, MacDonald has three assists, five shots on net and three hits. The 30-year-old has been deployed as a forward while the Sharks deal with injuries to a number of wingers. He has eight points, 68 shots on net, 58 hits, 40 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 54 contests between the Sharks and the Avalanche this season.

Yahoo DFS Hockey: Saturday Picks
October 13, 2018
Sasha Yodashkin looks at Saturday's Yahoo slate, recommending the Maple Leafs' Mitch Marner on the road against the Capitals.
2018 Fantasy Outlook
MacDonald was on an AHL-only deal last season, but is now in the position to start for the Panthers on opening night. Last season with the Binghamton Devils the 25-year-old defender put up 20 goals and 55 points in 75 games, leading the AHL in points. He was also named on the first All-Star team at the end of the season. During preseason MacDonald was constantly praised by head coach Bob Boughner as one of the best defensemen on the ice, so expect the rookie to see significant ice time on the bottom pairing while battling with MacKenzie Weegar, Alex Petrovic, and fellow preseason breakout Bogdan Kiselevich for a permanent spot on the starting lineup.
