McKegg cleared waivers Wednesday and will be reassigned to AHL Portland.

Analysis:

McKegg's very limited production this season made it highly unlikely he would get picked up by anybody off the waiver wire. The move will allow the 23-year-old to get a taste of playoff hockey, albeit in the minors, in order to further his development.
