As this is (sort of) the Summer Thread: there's a post on USCHO Fan Forum that Ben Syer interviewed for the vacant Princeton head coach job.

CAS

Re the Princeton job, College Hockey News had a story yesterday that Union and Quinnipiac assistants were among those who interviewed on campus for the job. There was no mention of Ben Syer in the story.

Quote from: CASRe the Princeton job, College Hockey News had a story yesterday that Union and Quinnipiac assistants were among those who interviewed on campus for the job. There was no mention of Ben Syer in the story.

Source.

QuoteSources have indicated that at least seven Division I assistant coaches are also being carefully considered, including Keith Fisher (Penn State, former Princeton assistant), Joe Bonnett (Colorado College), Ben Barr (Providence), Kyle Wallack (Vermont), Joe Dumais (Union), Bill Riga (Quinnipiac) and Ben Syer (Cornell).

To be fair, that says he was "carefully considered."  The USCHO post either mischaracterized this or relied on some additional uncited information:

QuoteCornell associate head Ben Syer has applied for the head coach opening at Princeton. He's one of a handful of applicants getting interviewed......per Mike McMahon.

I have asked the USCHO poster for clarification.
