Career

Matt MacKay, who lived in Germany until he was twelve and also has a German passport, initially played in various youth teams in Germany and Canada. In 2006 he moved to the Alberta Junior Hockey League for the Calgary Canucks, for which he was active for three years. During the 2008/09 season he joined the Moose Jaw Warriors and began his career in the Western Hockey League , one of the three top junior leagues in Canada. Until 2011 he played there for four different teams, the greatest success being reaching the Conference semifinals with the Medicine Hat Tigers in the 2009/10 season . In his final year in the WHL, MacKay achieved his personal best of 88 points in 77 games.

Before the 2011/12 season , MacKay signed a contract with the Kölner Haien and has since been used either with the Haien in the German ice hockey league or with their cooperation partner, the upper division EV Duisburg . After the season he moved to Schwenninger Wild Wings , the club where his father once played. Since his father ran aground with the number 81, he plays with the number 18 in Schwenningen because he turned the digits upside down. After 26 games for the Wild Wings in the 2013/14 season, MacKay moved to EHC Red Bull Munich .

Between April 2015 and April 2017 MacKay was under contract with the Augsburger Panthers and scored a total of five goals and eleven assists in 97 DEL games for the Panthers. He started the 2017/18 game year with the Heilbronner Falken in DEL2 , before signing with the Krefeld Pinguinen in November 2017 and thus switched back to the DEL.
