HISTORY

Mike was showcased in the Reebok Star Classic 2000 with arresting black and white images created by legendary photographer Bert Stern. He was outfitted in the typical trappings of hockey gear, with one unexpected exception – the Reebok Classic tennis shoe.

In his role as spokesman for the “Teachers Are the Real Heroes” campaign, Mike reminded us that teachers should be respected and appreciated for all they do to help students achieve their goals in and out of the classroom. Mike communicates this important message in a videotape and posters that were distributed to over 500,000 students in more than 750 schools in the North Texas area. While serving as the Honorary Chairman of the Highland Park High School Community Service Council, which benefits various non-profit agencies, he actively participated in the annual food drive and helped students collect and distribute canned goods and other food items to those in need. Another beneficial partnership includes the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) safety program where Mike served as a spokesman. He appeared in a city-wide print campaign, including posters, to promote consumer safety in and around public transportation vehicles and sites.

Perhaps the most intriguing service feature for Mike came with a merging of hockey and the arts in 2001, when he was asked to pose for the promotional poster and print ad for The Dallas Opera’s production of The Barber of Seville. Using his good looks and hockey appeal, Mike helped effectively market both the Dallas Opera and their featured show.

Using his image throughout the Southwest Region, in 2002, Mike worked as the Hero of SubZero advertising, and reinforced the attributes of the Mt. Dew Brand. Intense, Physically Extreme Hockey/Sport + Modano’s High-Energy, Lightning Fast, Full-Throttle Style = MOUNTAIN DEW.
