Clague appeared in three games for the Sabres in 2023-24 and earned himself a one-year, two-way contract extension worth $775,000 on Friday. The 26-year-old defensemen is in his fifth NHL season and has two goals, and 21 points in 94 career NHL games played.
In his fourth full season with the Jets, DeMelo finished with a career-high 31 points (3G / 28A) in 82 games. The 31-year-old has now posted 100-plus hits and blocked shots in three consecutive years and is a key part of the Jets' penalty kill.
Fagemo was originally drafted by the Kings but was claimed off waivers by the Predators last October before being re-claimed by the Kings five weeks later. He spent most of the 2024 season in the AHL, where he tallied 62 points (43G / 19A) in 50 games. Through four professional seasons in North America, Fagemo has just four points (3G / 1A) in 21 career NHL games.
Di Giuseppe has been a healthy scratch for Vancouver's previous two games but is expected to draw back into the lineup for Game 5 as he replaces Linus Karlsson.

Down 3-1 in their series with the Colorado Avalance, the Jets will turn to Hellebucyk between the pipes in a must-win contest.

Namestnikov played only 10:05 time-on-ice before exiting Sunday's 5-1 game game-four loss to the Colorado Avalanche with an upper-body injury. In four playoff games, Namestnikov has one goal and a -3 plus/minus rating.
