[edit] Playing career

McGrattan is an enforcer who made a solid reputation for himself, particularly during the American Hockey League's 2004-05 season when he established an all-time league record for penalty minutes in a single season (551). He played his first career game in a 3-2 shootout win at Toronto on Oct. 5, 2005. He scored his first goal against Martin Brodeur of the New Jersey Devils and his second against the Atlanta Thrashers.

He played for six teams in the OHL from 1997 to 2002. Although he has yet to see action in an NHL playoff game.

He was a healthy scratch for most of the 2006-07 and 2007-08 season, dressing to replace injured teammates. In 2007-08 he played a minimal amount of games and was a healthy scratch for the majority of the campaign and playoffs.
