Playing career
Prior to his professional career, he played for Boston University, and played hockey in Canada for the Toronto Marlboros' AAA junior team.[2]
Clendening was part of Team USA's gold medal winning team at the 2010 IIHF World U18 Championships.[3] During the tournament he led all defensemen with 10 points, and tied for the lead among defensemen with 3 goals and 7 assists.[4] His 10 points ranked 6th among all players in the tournament, and his 7 assists ranked 4th.[5] He was named as one of the defensemen to the tournament all star team and as one of Team USA's 3 top players.[6][7]
He made his NHL debut on November 20, 2014 and scored his first NHL goal on his first shot against Jonas Hiller of the Calgary Flames.[8] On January 29, 2015, the Blackhawks traded Clendening to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for Gustav Forsling.[9]
On July 28, 2015, Clendening, along with Nick Bonino and a 2nd round pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft were traded from the Canucks to the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for Brandon Sutter and a 3rd Round pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft.[10]
Clendening made the Penguins roster to open the 2015–16 season. He posted 1 assist in 9 games with Pittsburgh before he was again included in a trade, alongside David Perron to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Carl Hagelin on January 16, 2016.[11] He was put on waivers and claimed by the Edmonton Oilers two weeks later, on January 27, 2016.[12] This marked the fifth organization Clendening would join within the year, though he never actually played for the Anaheim Ducks organization.
