Mylymok Gets AHL Call-Up

The Rapid City Rush, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Calgary Flames, announced on Thursday, via a Heartland Health & Wellness Roster Adjustment, that forward Connor Mylymok has been recalled to the American Hockey League’s Calgary Wranglers.

Mylymok, 24, is in his first full professional season. He has been with Rapid City the entire year, recording seven goals and 14 points in 30 games.

His physical presence has been felt to go along with the scoring touch, too. Mylymok has logged seven fights this season and leads the Rush in penalty minutes as a result.

The rookie winger began his career with the Idaho Steelheads in March of 2024, fresh out of Niagara University. He scored three goals and recorded 36 penalty minutes in 11 regular-season games with Idaho in 2023-24, and added an assist in nine post-season contests.

The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Jackson, Mississippi native signed an AHL/ECHL contract with Calgary over the summer, which allowed him to join Rapid City and be coached by Scott Burt, a longtime teammate of his father Jeremy.

This is Mylymok’s first American Hockey League opportunity. With this call-up, five players who have spent time in Rapid City this season are now on the Wranglers’ roster.

Mylymok began his NCAA HOCKEY career at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks, where he played for two seasons before finishing his final season with 11 points in 37 games for Niagara.

Rapid City battles the Allen Americans on Friday and Saturday at The Monument Ice Arena.
