He grew up dreaming of playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs and looked up to NHL star Bernie Parent as a role model.

He played in the 1979 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with Don Mills.

McLean played major junior in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) for three seasons with the Oshawa Generals.

McLean was called up from Maine on December 19, 1986, after Friesen was released and Terreri was sidelined with the flu.

He arrived in New Jersey three hours before game-time against the Washington Capitals that day.

1987

He played with the Devils' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Maine Mariners, before being traded to the Canucks in 1987.

Following the club's 1987 training camp, he and Craig Billington were sent to their AHL affiliate, the Maine Mariners, while Karl Friesen and Chris Terreri were chosen to backup Alain Chevrier.

Sean Burke was also in the Devils' system, although he was playing for the Canadian National Team at the beginning of the season.

He appeared in four games during his call-up before being reassigned on January 6, 1987.

After his return to the AHL, McLean suffered an injury, damaging cartilage in his right knee during a game on February 15.

The injury required arthroscopic surgery.

While training in the off-season, McLean injured his left knee and underwent his second arthroscopic surgery on July 29, 1987.

Leading up to the 1987–88 season, McLean was traded, along with Greg Adams and a second round choice (Leif Rohlin) in the 1988 NHL Entry Draft, to the Vancouver Canucks for centre Patrik Sundström and the Canucks' second- (Jeff Christian) and fourth-round draft picks (Matt Ruchty) in 1988, on September 15, 1987.

1994

In 1994, he backstopped the Canucks to the seventh game of the Stanley Cup Finals against the Rangers.

1998

In 1998, he was traded away and spent the final three seasons of his career with the Hurricanes, Panthers and Rangers, before retiring in 2001.

Since retiring, McLean has been a goaltending coach for the Kamloops Blazers of the Western Hockey League (WHL), worked in broadcasting with the Canucks' pay-per-view telecasts and became a part-owner of the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL)'s Burnaby Express (now Coquitlam Express).
