McClennon was a 6th rounder back in 2020 by Philadelphia but the Flyers chose not to offer him a contract last June.

He also had a very productive playoffs for the Ice finishing with 14 goals and nine assists for 23 points in 19 games as Winnipeg ultimately fell to Seattle in the WHL Championship.
In total he spent the last four seasons in Winnipeg with the Ice and like Pederson had his rookie campaign in Kootenay. He played a total of 243 games in junior with 138 goals and 146 assists for 284 points.
