Mark was a special player at Wisconsin, playing for his dad who was one of the best, and had an amazing.... I think 14-year career in the NHL. He's now the winningest coach in the history of NCAA women's DI hockey; with I believe 667 wins. At 67 years old, he still found the energy to jump up and down with his coaches in pure joy over also bringing Wisconsin their 7th(?) National Championship, which is tops in the game. No matter what level Mark has been in hockey, he's proven that he brings the aura of a winner with him. When you listen to announcers who had a chance to play for him at various times, you come to the realization that these players realize that time with him was special.For Mark, the last 7 years have brought the Badgers 4 national titles. I hate thinking that the day will come that he'll walk away. They will have a rough time finding anyone who understands how to create winners like he does.</blockquote>
