Mark Rummukainen (born 19 February 1982) is an Australian ice hockey player who plays defenceman for the CBR Brave in the Australian Ice Hockey League and is a member of the Australian national ice hockey team. Mark is the inaugural and current club captain for the CBR Brave.
Rummukainen first played ice hockey in 2000 for the Canberra Knights of the Australian Ice Hockey League (AIHL). He played for the Knights for the next two seasons until moving to Finland to join the HC Storm Vaasa of the 2. Divisioona for the 2002-03 season. Following the end of the season he returned to Australia and rejoined the Knights for the start of the 2003 AIHL season. He continued to play for the Knights until 2006 where he moved to Brisbane and joined the Brisbane Blue Tongues. Rummukainen played for the Blue Tongues for the 2006 and 2007 season but re-joined the Knights for the 2008 season.
Before the start of the 2014 AIHL season the Knights folded operations and were replaced in the league by the CBR Brave. Rummukainen was a central figure in the rise of the new club following the collapse of the Knights. Mark along with Jordan Gavin lead a consortium of ex Knights players that approached the AIHL with a proposal to take over the vacated licence and form a new club in Canberra. The CBR Brave was born 06 March 2014 when Mark, head of the player consortium, paired up with Allinsure director Peter Chamnberlain and Coordinate’s owner-director Jamie Wilson.
Mark along with the new ownership team started a community crowd-sourcing champaign to help raise money for the new club. By the end of the campaign Mark and co raised $27,000 for the CBR Brave.
