Default Rapid City Rush (ECHL) 2022-23 Season

Their regular season starts this Friday with a trip to Salt Lake City to take on the Utah Grizzlies.

Given that this season two of the Flames' more intriguing ELC players. Kerins and Nikolaev will be starting their pro careers there, I thought a thread would be warranted.

Daniil Chechelev, another Flames draft pick, is also with the Rush on an AHL contract.

I have no idea how the Rush will fare this year, though it seems like they'll be more competitive than last year's KC Mavericks.

Seems like Kerins is probably on the absolute upper edge of ECHL talent. That's a good sign.

Yeah, I don't think he's long for that level of league....

Still, he's got to play, and right now why take ice time from the Wrangler's top forwards?

I don't disagree. Just don't often see forwards make the giant development curve from ECHL to NHL. The league itself kind of limits. However we have weegar within the club who has done this on the D side.

Kerins has NHL level talent IMO. And with the wranglers struggling on the top end, perhaps they need a talent infusion.

6-4 Final Rapid City over Kansas City.

Flames scoring

Rory Kerins! with a goal and +2 on the night
Matt Marcinew with two goals
Simon Lavigne with two assists
Ilya Nikolaev with an assist
Lucas Feuk with an assist
Rhett Rhinehart with an assist
Calder Brooks with an assist


Daniil Chechelev with the win.


Flames ELC prospects in bold.

I include the players on ECHL/AHL deals that could conceivably end up on the Wranglers.

Rush lose 3-2 to the Idaho Steelheads.

Kerins had assists on both Rush goals.

Another beauty save by Chechelev..
