An alumni dinner in New Haven before a Yale game. Mike was the guest of honor, but he is so down to earth. Who wouldn't want to play for him?

Hmmm too many
2004-05 ECAC QF against Clarkson, freshman Topher Scott scores in OT, jumps about a meter looking up at section A. My first year at cornell, we were undefeated at home and I thought we were unbeatable.
2005-06 ECAC QF against Clarkson, senior Matt Molson scores in 2OT for his last goal at Lynah. Magical.
2007-08 my senior year, last game of the QF, end of the third. Schafer puts in the seniors, and Topher comes up to the faceoff dot in front of A. He doesn't do anything much- he simply looks up at section A with a big grin and everyone absolutely LOSES it.
After graduating there was an ECAC SF in Albany against Princeton where they were down I think two goals in the third. They make it back with goals by Riley Nash and Colin Greening, then win in overtime. Unbelievable. Don't ask what happened the next day.
That NCAA game against Michigan, and also the one against northeastern where we dominated. The shift against UNH.
And... this year! I'll never forget the Q game or the MSU game.
Seeing Lynah come alive again in Spring '96 after many years. Cornell doesn't feel like Cornell without world-class hockey, and that year Mike quickly took us from nowhere to real competitors. San-ci-mino! Thanks Coach, and enjoy your retirement.
BTW, for the '96-'97 season, I was #001 in the ordering for season tix, by virtue of being an older PhD student with credit given for my undergrad days there, '81-'85. I got two season tix for me and a guest, and (natch) chose B on the C side, pretty far up.
