COREAU FILLS IN

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Monday reassigned goaltender Jared Coreau from the ECHL’s Toledo Walleye to the Grand Rapids Griffins.

Coreau, 22, has made five appearances with Grand Rapids in his first professional season and has posted a 0-4-0 record, a 4.39 goals against average and a 0.873 save percentage. The 6-foot-4, 208-pound goaltender has also appeared in 17 matches with the Walleye, registering a 1-11-4 record, a 4.20 GAA and 0.872 save percentage.

Prior to being signed to a three-year entry-level contract by Detroit last April, Coreau spent three seasons with Northern Michigan University, where he posted a 15-19-4 record, a 2.70 GAA, a 0.919 save percentage and one shutout after starting in all 38 games during his junior year.

The Griffins will embark on a season-high seven-game road trip this week, stopping first to battle the San Antonio Rampage on Thursday, followed by consecutive games against the Oklahoma City Barons on Friday and Saturday. All three games will begin at 8 p.m. EDT.
