2013
Clendening hasn't played in an NHL game since May 4, 2019, but a condensed 2020-21 season could keep him in the Blue Jackets' orbit as a depth defenseman. Now 28 years old, the time for Clendening to solidify an NHL job is likely gone, but with most teams expecting to need nine or 10 blueliners, there's likely a place for him on the taxi squad. It'd still be a long-shot for Clendening to see NHL ice next season, so fantasy managers shouldn't consider him for their virtual teams.
Clendening only appeared in five NHL contests with the Coyotes last season, tallying two assists over that span. The 25-year-old journeyman inked a one-year, two-way deal with the Blue Jackets in July, which strongly indicates he'll be spending most (if not all) of the 2018-19 campaign in the minors. The veteran blueliner can safely be ignored in all fantasy formats.
Clendening is an offensive-minded defender who has toiled in the AHL for two straight years. He loves to play with the puck, rather than dish it off, and he is especially good on the point with the man advantage. He'll soon knock on the Hawks' door, but he does need a bit more time developing his own-zone game before he can meet the tough expectations of coach Joel Quenneville. Dynasty-league owner should keep him on their radar.
Clendening will turn 21 in October and could make a run for the big club coming out of camp. He finished third in scoring (46 points) among all defenseman in the AHL last season and led all blueliners with 37 assists in his first professional season. Keeper leaguers need to know his name.
