Shoots: L |

Born: 1995-01-06 |
Hometown: Sun Prairie, WI, USA |
Drafted: 2013 by Colorado Avalanche, 123rd Overall |
Observations:
January 2014 – Will Butcher was one of 7 defensemen selected to the USA roster for the World Junior Championships in Malmo, Sweden. Butcher had a solid showing at the World Juniors, he played in five games and scored five points, two of those on points were goals on the power play. Andrew Ward
June 2013 – Will Butcher is an undersized offensive defenceman with strong mobility, quick feet, a good hockey mind and the ability to lead the rush. As with most offensive defensemen, Butcher has a tendency to play a bit risky and is prone to costly turnovers but he does show an ability to defend well and is coachable in that area. Butcher entered his draft year with expectations that he would produce big numbers but feel a tad short with 11 goals and 37 points in 67 games for the USNTDP U18 squad. Butcher’s patience and ability to walk the line with ease makes him an excellent powerplay quarterback option. Brendan Ross
Despite a smaller stature, Butcher provides serious offensive upside and many peropheral stats in fantasy leagues.
