Norfolk, VA - The Norfolk Admirals announced on Friday afternoon that the AHL’s Chicago Wolves have loaned forward Connor McClennon to Norfolk. McClennon is expected to be in the lineup for tonight’s game against the Trois-Rivieres Lions.
McClennon, 21, was drafted by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft (sixth-round, 178th overall). He has spent the last four seasons playing for the Winnipeg Ice in the Western Hockey League (WHL). In his tenure with the Ice, the Alberta native totaled 284 points in 243 games (138g, 146a). McClennon was an assistant captain for all four seasons in Winnipeg.
