Maurizio Colella is back with the Rapid City Rush for the 2025-26 season, serving as alternate captain in his third year with the ECHL affiliate of the Calgary Flames. He posted 36 points (10 goals, 26 assists) across 70 games last season, after 32 points in 72 the season before. Coleman, a 28-year-old from Tottenham, Ontario, is the Rush’s only player to have spent the last two full seasons in Rapid City, a factor that could push him toward 200 games for the franchise. His background includes a stint overseas in Italy, dual citizenship, and a five-year junior career in the Ontario Hockey League, plus three college seasons at Acadia University. With a third year ahead, Colella could become a bridge figure for the Rush’s development pipeline, and his continued production or leadership may attract opportunities at higher levels should Flames prospects or injuries create openings. Fantasy managers watching the Rush should note his durability, leadership role, and potential to contribute on a power play, especially if a call-up to the Flames organization becomes possible as the season progresses.
