Colaiacovo also has an [[identical twin]] brother, [[Paulo Colaiacovo]] who is a goaltender currently playing for the [[Tilburg Trappers]] in the Netherlands.<ref name="Twins">{{Cite web|url=http://www.thestar.com/printArticle/180267|title=Hockey twins leagues apart|accessdate=2007-02-11|publisher=Toronto Star|year=2007|author=Cox, Damien}}</ref> Colaiacovo was drafted 17th overall by Toronto in the [[2001 NHL Entry Draft]]. Colaiacovo has been bothered by injuries that have hindered him from becoming an NHL regular, but the Maple Leafs still consider him to be a good prospect. He scored his first career NHL goal on [[November 8]], [[2005]] against the [[Washington Capitals]]. On [[January 23]], [[2006]], Colaiacovo missed a hipcheck on [[Vaclav Varada]] in a game against the [[Ottawa Senators]], smashing head-first into the boards. He was taken off the ice in a stretcher. The injury was a major [[concussion]], and missed the end of the [[2005-06 NHL season]]. Colaiacovo recovered fully from his concussion, but later injured his hand in his first game back into the Toronto Marlies lineup. On [[December 4]], the Maple Leafs recalled Colaiacovo from the Marlies and on [[December 16]], he scored his first goal of the season against the New York Rangers. Colaiacovo underwent [[Arthroscopy#Knee Arthroscopy|arthroscopic knee surgery]] on April 29, 2007.<ref>{{cite news | title = Leafs' Colaiacovo undergoes knee surgery | url = http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=206111&hubname=nhl | publiser = TSN.ca | date = 2007-04-30 | accessdate = 2007-05-01}}</ref> ==Awards and achievements== * 2001 - Voted Best Defensive Defenceman - OHL Western Conference * 2003 - WJC First All-Star Team ==Career statistics== {| BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="0" width="75%" style="text-align:center" |- bgcolor="#e0e0e0" ! colspan="3" bgcolor="#ffffff" | &nbsp; ! rowspan="99" bgcolor="#ffffff" | &nbsp; ! colspan="5" | Regular&nbsp;Season ! rowspan="99" bgcolor="#ffffff" | &nbsp; ! colspan="5" | Playoffs |- bgcolor="#e0e0e0" !
