Playing career

Undrafted, Rodewald played major junior with the Regina Pats and Moose Jaw Warriors in the Western Hockey League. Upon completion of his final season with the Warriors in 2014–15, he embarked on his professional career by signing as a free agent to a one-year AHL contract with the Toronto Marlies on March 26, 2015. [1] He joined the club immediately on an amateur try-out in closing out the season with 1 assist in 9 games.

At the beginning of his second season playing within the Ottawa Senators AHL affiliates in 2017–18, Rodewald signed his first NHL contract by agreeing to a two-year entry-level contract with the Senators on October 24, 2017. [2] He was immediately recalled by Ottawa and made his NHL debut in a 5–4 shootout defeat to the New Jersey Devils on October 27, 2017. [3]

On June 27, 2019, Rodewald was signed to a one-year, two-way $725,000 contract extension to remain with the Senators. [4] Rodewald began the 2019–20 season in the AHL with the Belleville Senators. After going scoreless in 6 games, Rodewald was traded by the Senators to the Florida Panthers in exchange for the rights of Chris Wilkie on October 27, 2019. [5]

As a free agent from the Panthers, Rodewald to continue his career opted to sign abroad in Europe, signing mid-season into the 2020–21 campaign with Czech club, HC Oceláři Třinec of the ELH, on January 3, 2021. [6]

During his second season with Kunlun Red Star in 2023–24, Rodewald contributed with 6 goals and 16 points through 44 regular season games before he was traded to fellow KHL club, Traktor Chelyabinsk, in exchange for financial compensation on December 27, 2023. [7]

Playing out his contract with Traktor, Rodewald as a free agent in the off-season continued his tenure in the KHL, joining Admiral Vladivostok for the 2024–25 season on June 17, 2024. [8]
