Prospect eligible for the 2024 NHL Entry Draft

McNamara's an intelligent passer with an emphasis on building his team's offence. He passes through opponents, relocates for the return feed, delays for support, stays open inside space for onetimers, and connects with teammates as they rush the net. Rather than forcing plays up the boards, he uses weaving rushes and give-and-gos to keep defenders guessing. And he links all these together in a single sequence. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
