Rangers' Sean Day clears waivers

Former New York Rangers defenseman Sean Day cleared unconditional waivers Sunday, according to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.

Day, who was granted "exceptional status" into the OHL as a 15-year-old, was selected by the Rangers in the third round of the 2016 draft. He's just one of seven players - including John Tavares, Aaron Ekblad, and Connor McDavid - in CHL history to earn the honor.

The 22-year-old failed to crack the Rangers' NHL roster. He's spent the last two seasons in both the AHL and ECHL, amassing 18 points in 62 AHL games during his career.
