Wolfpack Sign RIT Defenseman Dan Ringwald

This is rather old news, but it flew under the radar and I missed it. The Hartford Wolfpack have signed RIT defenseman Dan Ringwald to a professional contract for the 2010-2011 season. This is not to be confused with a New York Rangers contract, as this contract is strictly a minor league contract with the AHL or ECHL. Details of the contract are not known, but it is assumed to be a two-way minor league deal, which works the same way as an NHL two-way contract, except the movement is between the AHL and ECHL, as oppposed to the AHL and the NHL.

Ringwald was third in NCAA Division I defensemen in scoring in his senior year, putting up a line of 11-26-37 and +22 as he led the RIT team to its first ever Frozen Four appearance.
