Mike Thompson, listed on Wikipedia as Michael Thompson, is an Iroquois former professional box lacrosse goaltender born on June 16, 1977, in Akwesasne, Ontario. He played seven seasons in the National Lacrosse League, six of them with the Buffalo Bandits, after signing with them on August 18, 2006, as backup to Steve Dietrich. Injuries to Dietrich gave him the starting job in 2007, and in 2008 he and Ken Montour formed a goalie platoon as Buffalo won its fourth NLL Championship, with Thompson making 39 saves in the Champion's Cup. He retired after the 2012 season but dressed as an unused backup for two games with the Rochester Knighthawks in 2014.
