Mar 26, 2017

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Sunday recalled defenseman Dan Renouf from the Grand Rapids Griffins.

Playing in his first full professional season, Renouf, 22, ranks fourth among Griffins defenseman in scoring with 15 points (3-12—15) and leads all skaters with 59 penalty minutes in 58 games. His plus-15 rating ties for third on the team.

Should he debut with Detroit, Renouf will become the 162nd Griffins alumnus to play in the NHL.

Signed as a free agent by Detroit to a two-year contract in March 2016, the 6-foot-3, 205-pound blueliner has totaled 16 points (3-13—16) and 64 PIM in 64 career AHL contests since joining the Griffins at the end of last season.

A native of Ajax, Ontario, Renouf played three seasons at Maine University (H-East) before turning professional. In 111 games with the Black Bears from 2013-16, he tallied 38 points (10-28—38) and 72 PIM. As a junior, he led Maine’s defensemen in goals (6), assists (9) and points (15). Renouf was a Maine Scholar-Athlete Award winner after the 2014-15 season and was selected to the Hockey East All-Academic Team during his first year on campus.
