Clague has seen limited action this season with the Sabres, picking up an assist, 13 SOG and -2 plus/minus while averaging 15:20 ATOI and will draw back into Buffalo's lineup Tuesday in replacement of Lawrence Pilut.
Clague was a second-round pick in 2016 and has appeared in 58 NHL games since turning pro in 2019. Last year, he was claimed off of waivers by the Canadiens and had two goals and eight assists (10 points) in 36 combined games with Los Angeles and Montreal. He'll be a fringe roster player for the Sabres in 2022-23.
Clague has been a healthy scratch for six straight games but will replace Jordan Harris in the lineup on Thursday. Clague has two goals and three assists (five points) in 24 games since joining the Canadiens.
Clague returned from injury on Thursday and scored one goal with two assists in 18:49 TOI. This move is likely to get young Jordan Harris back in the lineup while also managing Clague's injury.
Clague has been out since March 9th and is expected to miss at least one more week with an upper-body injury. Corey Schueneman should remain in the Canadiens' lineup while Clague is out.
It's unclear whether or not Clague will draw into the lineup on Thursday but with Chris Wideman suspended, he may have to play. Clague has one goal and no assists in eight games with the Canadiens.
Clague was a second-round pick (No.51 overall) in 2016 and was waived by the Kings after just 33 career NHL games. Clague has picked up five assists in 11 games this season and will likely factor in full-time on the Canadiens' blueline.
Clague played in the season opener but sat out the last two games. On Thursday he is expected to replace Kurtis MacDermid and skate on the third line with Sean Walker. He had one shot and two PIMS in 15:19 TOI last Thursday.
Clague appeared in four games during his call-up but goes back to Ontario with Derek Forbert back with the Kings. The 21-year-old has 15 points (6G / 9A) in 27 AHL games.
Clague made his NHL debut last Saturday but was a healthy scratch on Monday. He could draw back into the lineup tonight in San Jose. The 2016 second-round pick (No.51 overall) has 15 points (6G / 9A) in 27 AHL games this season.
