Help Cornell Head Coach Mike Schafer

The college hockey community is a small one, one that's tight knit and very passionate. While some fans and players might hate each other while the game is being played, off the ice we are one big family. And as a family we must help each other when one needs help... Even when the one your helping just destroyed your dream of your first ECAC Championship and ended your season.

Recently, Cornell Bench Boss Mike Schafer's nephew Jake has been diagnosed with cancer. This is not the first time his family has been stricken by a life threatening sickness. I'm not going to go into it, but you an read about it on Ithaca Journal.com.

So, I urge you to donate to the cause or at least send your best wishes to the Schafer family. You can donate or write a message to Jake's Team by clicking here. It's very quick and easy (only took me a minute), but most of all it is for a good cause.
