With respect my friend I disagree . I think Clague has some offensive ability but i compare him to Martinez. He has some upside but isn't /wasn't used on the pp to take advantage of it. I am looking for a lefthanded Slava clone. Someone who can go end to end with a better first pass. Clague will be a elite 3 rd pairing with decent 2nd pairing ability.
I would definetely see Claque as a 2nd pair offensive defender.
But let's get your route. Who would be even remotely available, to trade for?
Do you have someone in mind? There are not to many young defenders out there
