Oilers Lock Up Gritty Winger Clattenburg With ELC
Posted: Mon Dec 23, 2024 7:35 pm
Connor Clattenburg, a fifth-round pick just signed his ELC with the Oilers. He’s described as a bang-and-crash winger currently captaining the Flint Firebirds and leading the team in PIMs. While projected as a potential fourth-liner or fringe NHL player, his recent offensive uptick in the OHL raises some interesting questions. Is this a sign of untapped potential or simply a good run in juniors? Could Clattenburg develop into more than a bottom-six grinder? What kind of impact could a player with his physical style have on a team like the Oilers? Where do you see him fitting into Edmonton’s lineup in a few years? Share your thoughts on Clattenburg's potential and his fit with the Oilers. Is this a depth signing with hidden upside or just another late-round gamble?
