Clifton recorded an assist in Sunday's 5-3 defeat to Detroit.
Scouting Report
Entering his prime, he has yet to show the kind of offensive skills he demonstrated at lower levels. Can move the puck well and has a decent shot. Is fairly useful within his limits but still trying to prove he can hold a regular spot among a team’s top-six defensemen at the highest level.
Long Range Potential: Mobile depth defenseman.
