Didn't see this posted anywhere and thought I would share.
Good article on Renaud's impact on Windsor, and former teammates like Taylor Hall, Adam Henrique, and Ryan Ellis.
Quote:
Renaud’s versatility may have come as a surprise, but his instinctual desire to help the team did not. That attitude was a huge reason why the Calgary Flames drafted the workmanlike Renaud in June of 2007, and why he’d become a hometown captain of the Spitfires by the start of the next season. The way Renaud carried himself is also why, nearly 10 years after his sudden death brought an entire community to its knees, his name headlines a league trophy, is permanently inked in tattoos and still induces smiles from those who knew him.
