Red Berenson coached Michigan's men's hockey program for 33 seasons. Friday night, his legacy will be cemented when they official dedicate the ice at Yost Ice Arena to the former coach.

Last year, Michigan announced they would name the ice after Berenson, calling it the Red Berenson Rink at Yost Ice Arena. Friday night they'll hold an official ceremony ahead of Michigan's matchup against Notre Dame.

Berenson was on hand for a ceremonial puck drop, and the players all had Berenson and a No. 9 on their warm-up jerseys.

Berenson retired this past spring, but in his time as coach of the program Berenson led the Wolverines to two national championships and a whopping 21 conference championships.He also won a championship as a player at Michigan.
