Greg Rallo is entering his eighth season behind the bench with the Ads and his second as Associate Coach. During his time in Milwaukee, Rallo has helped the team accumulate a 276-166-35-15 record, an impressive .612 points percentage. That includes four 40-win seasons and back-to-back Central Division titles (2024 & 2025) for the first time since the team joined the AHL in 2001.
The Admirals have qualified for the Calder Cup Playoffs each season that they have been held since Rallo joined Karl Taylor’s coaching staff. Milwaukee has won a round in each of the past four post-seasons, the first time in franchise history they have done that, and advanced to the Western Conference Finals in both 2023 and 2024.
In addition, he helped guide Milwaukee to the Macgregor Kilpatrick Trophy as the AHL’s regular-season champions in 2019-20 before the season was ended prematurely because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This past summer, Rallo was selected as one of the assistant coaches for TeamUSA for the Gretzky Hlinka Cup helping the club to a second place finish in the tournament.
Rallo wrapped up a 12-year professional career in 2018. In 615 career AHL contests, Rallo compiled 165 goals and 177 assists for 342 points, including a career-high 54 (26g-28a) with Texas in 2010-11. His AHL career featured stints with six different clubs and saw him captain the San Antonio Rampage in 2013-14 and serve as an alternate captain for the Texas Stars in 2015-16. He also competed in 11 NHL games with the Florida Panthers from 2011-13 and scored his first career NHL goal on April 2, 2013, against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Rallo also won the 2007 Kelly Cup as ECHL champion with the Idaho Steelheads, where he had 31 points (13g-18a) in 37 games.
Prior to his professional career, Rallo played four seasons for Ferris State University in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association from 2002-06, where he had 108 points (46g-62a) in 152 games.
Rallo and his wife, Laina, have two daughters, Avery and Addison, and a son, Ryder.
