McClement, who has yet to record a point this season, saw ice time of just 7:21 Friday against the Canadiens - his second-lowest TOI of the season.
EDGE Analysis
McClement has seen his average ice time steadily decline over the last few seasons, from 15:15 four seasons ago with the Maple Leafs, to just 10:14 currently. His value to the Hurricanes remains tied to his ability to take faceoffs and kill penalties, two stat categories that carry little to no weight in most fantasy formats. As such, he should not be on your roster outside of very deep leagues.

McClement has zero points and a minus-2 rating in three games this season.
EDGE Analysis
McClement had just 11 points in 77 games last year, so it's no surprise he's off to such a slow start - when your job is centering the team's fourth line, generating offense is not exactly your first priority. The 33-year-old McClement has reached the 20-point plateau just twice in the past six seasons, so fantasy owners should manage their expectations accordingly. His value is confined to very deep formats only.

McClement, coming back from a four-game absence due to an undisclosed injury, netted a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win against the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
The goal was only his second of the year and he still skated just 7:56, the second-lowest mark on the team, which is reflective of how little fantasy value McClement generally brings to the table. Not only does he contribute minimal offense, he also doesn't offer much in secondary fantasy categories like hits and PIM. Now that he's healthy again, he'll again occupy fourth-line minutes for the Hurricanes.

McClement (undisclosed) will play Tuesday against the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
McClement will skate on Carolina's fourth forward line alongside Brendan Woods and Chris Terry. The 33-year-old center has notched just nine points in 61 games this season, so this shouldn't have much of an overall impact on the fantasy landscape.

McClement (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup Saturday versus Tampa Bay, per Hurricanes coach Bill Peters.
EDGE Analysis
McClement is a journeyman with 10 years of NHL service time. His biggest strength may be in the faceoff circle, as the forward is winning 56.9 percent of his draws this season. He'll try to overcome his undisclosed issue in time for Tuesday's home game against the Senators.

McClement (upper body) will return to the lineup Sunday against the Blues, Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News & Observer reports.
EDGE Analysis
Originally expected to be a scratch, McClement was a late addition to Sunday's lineup following the team's trade of Eric Staal to the Rangers. While the 32-year-old center isn't really worthy of a roster spot in nearly all fantasy formats, it is worth noting that he'll at least be back on the ice Sunday for anyone with interest in the situation.

McClement (upper body) will not play Friday against the Bruins, per coach Bill Peters.
EDGE Analysis
Even when healthy, McClement's averaged just 11:29 of ice time this season which is consistent with a fourth-line role. He won't command attention in the fantasy realm, but McClement has "real-life" value as a big center who plays sound line defense. He'll look to return Sunday against the Blues.

McClement is considered questionable to return Thursday due to an upper-body injury.
EDGE Analysis
McClement's departure shouldn't have much of an overall impact on the fantasy landscape, considering he has just nine points through 60 games this season. The team should update his status again before Friday's game against the Bruins, but expect either Nathan Gerbe or Riley Nash to sub in the lineup for him should he miss the contest.

McClement posted a rare assist in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Blackhawks and fired a season-high five shots on goal.
EDGE Analysis
The helper was McClement's seventh point of the season and first in 23 games dating back to Dec. 6. McClement still offers very little by way of fantasy value centering the Hurricanes' fourth line. He should be on your roster only if you're in a very deep fantasy format.

McClement tallied his first goal of the season Sunday against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
McClement has played in all 27 of Arizona's games this season, yet averages less than 12 minutes of ice time per game. Last season, the 32-year-old center recorded just seven goals in 82 games. McClement's opportunities continue to be sparse, playing on Carolina's fourth line.
