There was no outlook written for William Whitelaw in 2024. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.

Wisconsin commit joins Jackets

June 29, 2023

Whitelaw was selected 66th overall by the Blue Jackets in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft on Thursday.

ANALYSIS
It's difficult to argue with Whitelaw's production, as he posted 36 goals and 61 points in 62 games this past season while helping Youngstown win the USHL Clark Cup Championship. The consensus is that Whitelaw possesses NHL-caliber speed and a high-end shot, but he's struggled with consistency at times and there are long-term questions as to whether his game is dynamic enough to make a consistent offensive impact at the NHL level given his smaller stature (5-foot-9, 175 pounds). Whitelaw, a Minnesota native, is off to the University of Wisconsin this fall.

Likely joining Wolverines

April 11, 2024

Whitelaw is expected to transfer to the University of Michigan, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports Thursday, though Denver could still be in the mix.

ANALYSIS
Whitelaw managed 10 goals and seven assists in 37 games as a freshman with the University of Wisconsin this season. The 2023 third-round pick will hope for more playing time with a move to a Big 10 rival in Michigan. At this point, the 19-year-old Whitelaw is likely still a season or two away from potentially making the jump to the NHL.
