Kale Clague Facts

Player Type: Mobile DefensemanTwo-Way Defenseman
Drafted: 2016 round 2 #51 overall by Los Angeles Kings
Agency: Premium

Father: Jason Clague

An offensive defenseman in nature, Clague is a tantalizing blend of speed, cunning, and craftiness. Very smooth skater that is mobile at a professional level. Great vision and is able to control plays with the puck on his stick. Creative passer. Will need to work on his shot and consistency moving forward, but has the undeniable raw skills and fundamental attributes of a puck-moving offensive defenseman. All-in-all, a highly skilled defenseman that has the potential to be a proficient producer from the back end. (Curtis Joe, EP 2015)
