Marek Čiliak (born 2 April 1990) is a Slovak professional ice hockey goaltender who currently playing for Spartiates de Marseille of the Ligue Magnus.

Playing career

Čiliak made his Czech Extraliga debut playing for Kometa Brno during the 2012–13 Czech Extraliga season.[2]

In his second stint with Brno, Čiliak appeared in 6 seasons before leaving following the 2017–18 season, opting to sign a one-year contract in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) with Slovak club, HC Slovan Bratislava, on 30 May 2018.[3]

In the 2018–19 season, Čiliak was given starting goaltender duties, collecting just 6 wins through 28 games for Bratislava. With the club out of playoff contention, on 31 January 2019, he terminated his contract and returned for a third stint with Kometa Brno for the remainder of the season.[4] After 8 games with Brno, prior to the commencement of the post-season, Čiliak was signed to a two-year contract extension to remain with Brno on 11 March 2019.[5]
