ŁÓDŹ, POLAND — The Łódź Legion are proud to announce the signing of goaltender Colin Lee, who will join the club for the upcoming 2026–27 EUCHL season.

A native of Pierre, South Dakota, Lee arrives in Łódź off a standout campaign between the pipes, posting a .912 save percentage during the 2025–26 regular season. Known for his work ethic and competitiveness in the crease, Lee brings the kind of steady, game-stealing presence the Legion are building their first roster around.

For Lee, the move represents far more than a roster spot. The EUCHL gives North American student-athletes a rare path to compete at a high level while earning an accredited, English-language degree in the heart of Europe — combining elite hockey, education, and the experience of a lifetime in one of the continent's great university cities.

"I am excited and grateful to join the team and for the opportunity," said Lee. "I want to also take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way."

Head Coach Dylan Row has seen Lee's game up close — and what stood out was his ability to take over a game when it matters most.

"Colin is the kind of goaltender who can single-handedly change the outcome of a game," said Coach Row. "I've seen first-hand how he can take over and steal a night for his team. Myself and the entire coaching staff are thrilled to have him aboard as we build this program from the ground up."

The Legion will open their inaugural EUCHL season this fall. Single-game and season tickets are available now.

Welcome to Łódź, Colin.
