Dano put up four goals and seven assists in 38 NHL games last season. He also registered two assists in six games with the AHL’s Manitoba Moose. Dano missed nine weeks with a lower-body injury he suffered against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Dec. 29, 2016.
Winnipeg acquired Dano in the February 2016 trade that sent Andrew Ladd to the Chicago Blackhawks.
