Coach Kris Mayotte has his eyes set on returning Colorado College to hockey greatness.
Meanwhile, there are several players on the Colorado College hockey roster who have big shoes to fill. Three Tigers' fathers have lifted the Stanley Cup, themselves.

And after six decades of cheering on the Tigers, super fan Walt Jones was sure to be in attendance at the opening of the Ed Robson Arena, and he said the new rink had him in awe.
