Jay McClement (born March 2, 1983) is a Canadian professional ice hockey centreman currently playing for the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was originally selected by the St. Louis Blues in the second round, 57th overall, in 2001, playing for the team before later joining the Colorado Avalanche and Toronto Maple Leafs in his NHL career.
McClement was drafted by the St. Louis Blues in the second round, 57th overall, of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft from the Brampton Battalion of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).
McClement was a member of Team Canada at the 2007 IIHF World Championship that won the gold medal in a 4–2 victory over Finland in Moscow.
On May 26, 2009, McClement was re-signed to a three-year contract with the Blues.
On October 30, 2010, during the 2010–11 season, McClement scored his first career NHL hat-trick in a 4–3 shootout victory over the Atlanta Thrashers. On February 19, 2011, he was traded to the Colorado Avalanche, along with Erik Johnson and a conditional first-round draft pick, in exchange for Chris Stewart, Kevin Shattenkirk and a conditional second-round pick. Later that day, McClement made his Avalanche debut at the HP Pavilion at San Jose in a 4–0 defeat to the San Jose Sharks.
