Winnipeg Jets Claim Goaltender Clay Stevenson Off Waivers

The Winnipeg Jets have claimed 27-year-old goaltender Clay Stevenson off waivers from the Washington Capitals to serve in a backup role. Stevenson, who previously starred for the AHL's Hershey Bears with a career 63-31-11 record and 2.50 GAA, brings depth to Winnipeg. Over four career NHL starts with Washington, he posted a 3-1-0 record, a 2.00 GAA, and a .921 save percentage. He now gets a major opportunity for a regular NHL roster spot.
