Mace'o Phillips: Big Defense Project | Calgary Flames News

Maceo Phillips, the Flames’ 15th-ranked prospect, is a towering defenseman at 6’6” and 234 pounds—picked in the third round of the 2025 draft. While his offense isn’t flashy, he’s fearless with the puck and thrives on physicality. With stops in the USNTDP and USHL, plus a stint as a forward at the World Junior Summer Showcase, Phillips brings versatility and grit. He’s being compared to Nikita Zadorov and is set to join the WHL’s Medicine Hat Tigers before likely heading to the University of Minnesota. Though not expected to turn pro until age 21 or 22, his size and confidence make him a project with serious upside for Calgary’s defense.
