Edmonton Oilers prospect Connor Clattenburg turned back the clock with a fight-filled AHL game over the weekend.<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old has made a name for himself in the Oilers system as a hard-nosed, energetic forward who is not afraid to drop the gloves. Clattenburg has demonstrated this during Oilers training camps over the past two seasons, and it appears he has not shied away from that game during his first professional season.<\/p>\n
Clattenburg is playing with the AHL\u2019s Bakersfield Condors this season and has already fought five times<\/a> through 14 games. Two of which came in a single game over the weekend against the Coachella Valley Firebirds.<\/p>\n The feisty forward finished the game with two fights, a 10-minute misconduct, and a whopping 26 penalty minutes. This means that Clattenburg spent over a full period of the game sitting in the penalty box.<\/p>\n That didn\u2019t hurt his team, however, as the Condors cruised to a 6-3 victory. After the game, Clattenburg was fired up with an interview on the ice, and he wasn\u2019t afraid to drop the F-bomb.<\/p>\n \u201cI f*cking love it in [the penalty box],\u201d Clattenburg said with a smile. \u201cThat\u2019s what I want to do every night.\u201d<\/p>\n We \ud83e\udd2c\ud83e\udd2c\ud83e\udd2c love havin ya too Clatty pic.twitter.com\/LTZwr8GxB9<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Bakersfield Condors (@Condors) November 16, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n Clattenburg was initially drafted in the fifth round of the 2024 draft by the Oilers. He never had gaudy offensive numbers while playing in the OHL, but he did possess many intangibles that made him attractive to NHL teams, including his physical play.<\/p>\n He has also demonstrated some leadership qualities, being named captain of the OHL\u2019s Flint Firebirds<\/a> last season. When asked after the game, Clattenburg said that he wouldn\u2019t be changing his style of play anytime soon.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s what\u2019s gonna get me to the next level,\u201d Clattenburg said. \u201cI\u2019m going to keep playing that way; nothing is going to stop me.\u201d<\/p>\n POSTGAME | “I’m going keep playing that way, nothing is going to stop me.”#Condorstown<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/65WMnpTFRp<\/a><\/p>\n
