What do we know about this guy?

Calgary Flames land two top NCAA free agents in Connor Mackey, Colton Poolman - TSN.ca

The boards are extra quiet with COVID.

I guess a late bloomer, I have a hard time finding an NHL style or projection comparable

Seems like a bonafide beauty. They really seem to hate Kylington though

Scored his 1st NHL point tonight and took 3 penalties.

1st NHL goal for Mackey in the last game of the season.

Management seems to like him a lot, probably will see more regular games next season if he's re-signed.

He's slated to play on the US World Championship team. With the defense they're going with, he could see top-4 minutes.

Looked great in limited NHL action. After getting my hopes up (and subsequently crushed) for Valimaki though I’ll reserve judgement on Mackey.

He's slated to play on the US World Championship team. With the defense they're going with, he could see top-4 minutes.

He's going to miss at least the first few games due to quarantine protocols, so it'll be interesting to see his utilization joining the team so late.

how's he doing?

how's he doing?

He’s been solid in the AHL so far. Stockton has had a great start to the season.

The issue is the Flames have a good top 6 with Valimaki and Stone available as 7/8, so there isn’t likely to be much opportunity for him in the NHL this year.

He was just named AHL player of the week - 3 goals and 2 assists in 2 games, including 2 SHG.
