Needham also won the gold medal while representing Canada at the World Junior Championships that same season in 1990.

Mike Needham played in parts of two NHL seasons with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Dallas Stars from 1992 to 1994.

He also appeared in five games during the 1992 Stanley Cup Playoffs, for which he earned a Stanley Cup ring as a member of the Penguins.

Currently Mike sits as the Director of Development at Okanagan Hockey Academy in Penticton, BC.
