Would saying who he was a co-winner with be too much to add to the story?

Moderately fun fact: This is only the second time there has been a tie for the Spencer Penrose award. The other time, in 1966, Amo Bessone of Michigan State and Len Ceglarski of Clarkson shared the award. Those two teams met in the NCAA championship game that year.

If the above was directed at me, I had searched, and couldn't find it. There was nothing on USCHO or CHN.
If it was directed at whomever posted the Facebook story, I agree.

So, as I may have mentioned two or three trillion times, I hate retired numbers.
But when Mike finally hangs it up do we retire #3? 35 years or so with the program and counting. That's pretty special. He has basically given his life to Cornell hockey, and delivered so much.
I am connected with Mike's playing days since we almost exactly overlap, so it makes sense to me to honor all aspects of his contribution by celebrating him as the player who became the coach and then the legend.

Given Mike's promotion of Cornell tradition and the fact that he makes every player research their number's history, I suspect if you asked him, he would prefer to not have his number retired.

Obviously, if you asked him.
So don't ask him. Just do it.

Not until we do something for Ned. The Harkness room just doesn't make it.
Without Ned, would we have had Schafer? Who knows, but for sure the path of the hockey program would have been a lot different.
Certainly Ned made the biggest change in the history of the program.
Second, we would really be honoring his coaching, not his playing. So retiring his number doesn't seem like the right thing to do.
I'd still like to see a Harkness statue and name the ice for Schafer. You can do that now, don't need to wait till he retires.

Rename the rink for Schafer.
Rename the university for Harkness.

Assuming that this was directed at me, what is your point?
BTW, are you going to update your post-season simulation?
