Clague posted an assist in Friday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jackets. - Clague was promoted to the parent club Monday, following Owen Power's placement on injured reserve due to a hand injury. There had been a fair amount of hype with Clague when the Kings took him in the second round (No. 51 overall) of the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, but the defenseman has since appeared in just 93 top-level contests between the Kings, Canadiens and Sabres, adding a pair of goals and 19 assists in a five-year span. |
None |
| Feb. 19, 2024 |
Clague was called up from AHL Rochester on Monday, per Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News. - In a corresponding move, Owen Power (hand) was moved to injured reserve.

Clague was recalled from AHL Rochester on Friday. - Clague figures to serve as the seventh defenseman for the Sabres as they head to Minnesota on Saturday. The 2016 second-round pick has yet to get into an NHL game this season, instead playing 41 contests with the Americans in which he tallied three goals and 20 helpers. If he were to get into a game during this call-up, Clague would likely replace Ryan Johnson or Erik Johnson. |
None |
| Jan. 15, 2024 |
Clague was summoned from AHL Rochester on Monday. - Clague has two goals and 17 points in 31 AHL contests this campaign. His call-up doesn't bode well for the availability of Mattias Samuelsson (upper body) for Monday's contest against San Jose.

None |

Clague was placed on waivers for the purpose of reassignment to the AHL on Saturday, Chris Johnston of TSN reports. - Clague re-signed with Buffalo this offseason after tallying four assists in 33 games last year.

None |
| July 4, 2023 |
Clague agreed to a one-year, two-way contract with Buffalo on Tuesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Clague will remain with the Sabres despite not receiving a qualifying offer from the team this offseason. He contributed four assists, 24 shots on goal, 24 blocked shots and 24 hits in 33 games last year. It wouldn't be a surprise if Clague started the 2023-24 campaign in the minors. |
None |
| June 30, 2023 |
Clague didn't get a qualifying offer from Buffalo, which will result in him becoming an unrestricted free agent Saturday, per Joe Yerdon of the Bleacher Report. - Clague had four assists, 24 PIM, 24 shots, 24 hits and 24 blocks in 33 contests with Buffalo last season.

Coach Don Granato should be able to provide an update on the defenseman's status prior to Tuesday's game against Toronto. If Clague can't play, Jacob Bryson could enter the lineup. |
None |
| Dec. 15, 2022 |
Clague secured an assist to complement two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Avalanche. - Clague saw 23:56 of ice time, which included opportunities shorthanded and during the power play. The 24-year-old blueliner has a pair of assists representing his point total through 10 contests donning a Buffalo sweater; he's a work in progress, but Clague could be an intriguing option in the next couple of years. |
None |
| Dec. 10, 2022 |
Clague was called up from AHL Rochester on Saturday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. - In a corresponding move, Henri Jokiharju (lower body) was put on injured reserve following an injury sustained Friday versus Pittsburgh.

None |
| Nov. 4, 2022 |
Clague posted an assist, two hits and two PIM in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes. - Clague has appeared in four straight games with Ilya Lyubushkin (lower body) out of action. The assist on a Victor Olofsson goal was Clague's first point with the Sabres. He signed a two-way deal in July after finishing last year with the Canadiens, but injuries have greatly affected the Sabres' blue line, allowing him an opportunity to play with the big club. Clague had 10 points in 36 outings last year, and he'll primarily be a bottom-four option while at the NHL level. |
None |
| Oct. 23, 2022 |
Clague was summoned from AHL Rochester on Sunday. - The move comes after Mattias Samuelsson (lower body) was injured Saturday in a game against Vancouver. Clague will join the Sabres ahead of Tuesday's contest versus Seattle. He has three assists in five AHL outings this season. |

| Oct. 8, 2022 |
Clague was waived by Buffalo on Saturday, per CapFriendly. - Clague chipped in two goals and 10 points in 36 games with Los Angeles and Montreal last season. He also collected four assists in five AHL contests with Ontario. Clague is expected to start the year with Rochester if he clears. |

The 24-year-old defender will almost certainly have to settle for a two-way deal to remain in the NHL in 2022-23. |
None |
| April 7, 2022 |
Clague scored a goal and added two assists in a 7-4 win over the Devils on Thursday. - Clague hadn't played since March 9 due to an upper-body injury and he returned with a career game -- it was his first three-point game in the NHL. Clague will be filling a depth role until season's end, but the second-round pick (2016) clearly wants to prove he can be more than that for the Habs next year. |
None |
| April 2, 2022 |
Clague (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, per CapFriendly. - Clague remained out of the lineup for Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Lightning. The 23-year-old defenseman is likely to serve in a depth role for the remainder of the season -- he'll compete with the likes of Jordan Harris, Justin Barron and Corey Schueneman for playing time in the final month of the season. |
None |
| March 19, 2022 |
Clague is expected to miss one week of action with an upper-body injury. - Clague's absence will test the Canadiens' depth at defense, but it shouldn't impact any fantasy lineups, as he's only picked up two points through 23 contests this campaign. |
None |
| March 12, 2022 |
Clague (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, per CapFriendly. - It's unclear when Clague suffered the injury, as he's played in the Canadiens' last three games. The 23-year-old's move to IR opens a roster spot for Joel Edmundson (back) to make his season debut Saturday versus the Kraken. |

Clague departed the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Thursday. - Clague has missed one game whilst in the protocols. Since being claimed by the Canadiens on Dec. 4, the 23-year-old has averaged 18:58 of ice time -- 2:08 during the powerplay -- and has recorded one goal over eight games. |
None |
| Jan. 7, 2022 |

Clague scored a goal on one shot and delivered one hit in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to Tampa Bay. - Clague knotted the game at three goals apiece when he took a feed from Cole Caufield and clanged a missile off the post to the left of Maxime Lagace. It was the first goal in 34 NHL games for Clague, who joined the Canadiens early December off waivers from the Kings. He's appeared all six games since being claimed by Montreal and should be part of the lineup for road games Thursday against the Hurricanes and Saturday against the Panthers. Beyond that, the NHL postponed several home games, and the Habs will resume play Jan. 12 in Boston. At that point, Ben Chiarot, Jeff Petry and Chris Wideman could be off the COVID-19 protocols list. And Joel Edmundson (back), also in COVID-19 protocols, could return. |

| Dec. 8, 2021 |
Clague finished minus-1 over 17:29 of ice time in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Tampa Bay. - Clague made his Montreal debut after being claimed off waivers from the Kings over the weekend and did not make a good first impression. The minus-1 came about when Clague fanned on a pass from behind the Montreal goal, which went right to Pat Maroon at the side of the net, and he went far side on Jake Allen, who was hugging the short side post. The newest Canadien eventually settled in and had the fourth highest TOI of Montreal's blueliners. |
None |
| Dec. 7, 2021 |
Clague practiced on the third pair Monday and will be in the lineup Tuesday night against the Lightning, Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette reports. - Clague was claimed off waivers from the Kings this past week and will be put to work immediately due to injuries. Jeff Petry (upper body) is doubtful to play and Sami Niku (COVID-19) is quarantine until the weekend. He has history with head coach Dominique Ducharme, having played for the coach during two world junior championships. |
None |
| Dec. 4, 2021 |
Clague was claimed off waivers by the Canadiens from Los Angeles on Saturday, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports. - The Kings' 51st overall pick in 2016, Clague has recorded 11 points over a combined 33 NHL games since 2019-20. Five of those have come in 11 contests this year despite the fact he was designated a healthy scratch for the last four games of his Kings tenure, so it seems like he could jump right into a regular role with the Habs. |
None |
| Dec. 3, 2021 |
Clague was designated for waivers by the Kings on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Clague has been a healthy scratch for the club's last four contests, so his appearance on waivers shouldn't come as a shock. Still, the blueliner should be atop the list of potential call-ups for the remainder of the 2021-22 campaign. In the meantime, Sean Durzi figures to see plenty of minutes with Los Angeles. |
None |
| Nov. 17, 2021 |
Clague was recalled by the Kings on Monday, per CBS. - Clague is expected to skate on LA's third pairing and top power-play unit Wednesday versus Washington. The 23-year-old blueliner has racked up five helpers through eight top-level appearances this year. |

None |
| Nov. 5, 2021 |
The Kings recalled Clague from AHL Ontario on Friday. - As expected, the defenseman rejoins the Kings a day after being sent to the minors. Clague has tallied an assist in each of his three games this season and, having averaged over 20 minutes of time on ice per game, figures to play a critical role for the Kings going forward. |
None |
| Nov. 4, 2021 |
Clague was reassigned to AHL Ontario on Thursday, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports. - Clague is riding a three-game point streak and averaging 20:23 of ice time during that span. This is likely a paper move and the 23-year-old could be back in the lineup Friday against the Devils. |
None |
| Nov. 3, 2021 |
Clague produced an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Blues. - Clague has earned an assist in each of his three contests this season. He skated a season high 23:27 in Wednesday's contest, playing on the top pairing, and his assist in the game was his first to come at even strength. The added power-play time could give him some intrigue in fantasy as he tries to fill the void left by Drew Doughty (knee). |
