Item Description

Attention all hockey fans, bid today to win this Red Wings Autographed photo of Luke Glendening #41! 

Luke started out his years of playing hockey in his hometown East Grand Rapids. He played varsity all four years he attended East Grand Rapids High School and was their leading scorer for 2 out of the 4 years. He also spent one year as a post-graduate at The Hotchkiss School. Prior to turning professional, Glendening attended the University of Michigan where he played four seasons (2008—2012) of NCAA college hockey with the Michigan Wolverines.

On June 19, 2012, the Grand Rapids Griffins of the American Hockey League (AHL) signed Glendening as a free agent to a one-year contract. During the 2012–13 season, Glendening played 51 regular-season games in the AHL with the Griffins, and also played 27 games in the ECHL with the Toledo Walleye, where he was selected to play in the 2013 ECHL All-Star Game, but could not attend because he was recalled to the AHL. Glendening played 24 post-season games with Grand Rapids, scoring 16 points to help lead the Griffins to their first Calder Cup championship.

On July 5, 2013, the Detroit Red Wings signed Glendening to a one-year, two-way contract. On October 12, 2013, Glendening made his NHL debut in a game against the Philadelphia Flyers. On April 5, 2014, the Detroit Red Wings signed Glendening to a three-year contract extension. Glendening scored his first career NHL goal later that night against Carey Price of the Montreal Canadiens. Glendening set a franchise record among rookie forwards for the most games played without a goal, at 52 games, surpassing Cummy Burton, who played his entire 43-game Detroit career without scoring a goal.

On July 14, 2016, the Red Wings signed Glendening to a four-year contract extension.
