FERRARO RECALLED, NASTASIUK REASSIGNED

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – The Detroit Red Wings on Monday recalled right wing Landon Ferraro from the Grand Rapids Griffins and reassigned right wing Zach Nastasiuk from the Ontario Hockey League’s Owen Sound Attack to their AHL affiliate.

A native of Trail, British Columbia, Ferraro ranks third on the Griffins in scoring with 42 points (27-15—42) in 70 games and currently ranks second in the AHL in shots with 235. While the 2012-13 season yielded Ferraro’s most potent campaign offensively (24 goals, 23 assists), he has scored more goals as a Griffin this season (27) than any of his previous four incarnations with the team. The 23-year-old has played in 270 career games with Grand Rapids from 2009-15, accumulating 75 goals, 65 assists and 204 penalty minutes.

Detroit’s first choice (32nd overall) in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, Ferraro made his NHL debut with the Wings last season in a 3-2 victory versus the Toronto Maple Leafs on March 18, becoming the 142nd Griffins alumnus to play in the NHL. During his time with Detroit, the 6-foot, 185-pound right wing skated in four games and notched two shots on goal and two PIM.

A native of Barrie, Ontario, Nastasiuk captained the Attack to a 35-24-2-7 record this season, registering 77 points (35-42—77), 34 PIM and a plus-nine rating in 64 games. On Saturday, Owen Sound was eliminated from the OHL Playoffs after falling to the Guelph Storm, 2-1, in Game 5 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals. In all, Nastasiuk has amassed 187 points (90-97—187), 107 PIM and a plus-six rating in 256 career games with the Attack from 2011-15.

Detroit’s second choice (48th overall) in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, Nastasiuk went scoreless in five regular season games with the Griffins at the conclusion of their 2013-14 season, before potting one assist in seven games with Grand Rapids during the 2014 Calder Cup Playoffs. Nastasiuk, 20, was a member of Canada's gold medal-winning team at the 2013 Under-18 World Championship, where he recorded four points (2-2—4) in seven games.
