Cory Cyrenne (born August 25, 1977 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) is a former professional ice hockey player. He was named the Canadian Junior A Hockey Player of the Year in 1995 and received a hockey scholarship to Colorado College. ^[1] He was also named the CHL's Sportsmanlike player of the year in 1998. ^[2]

Cyrenne was at times a controversial player during his career. He left Colorado College before playing a single game, claiming that the school was a "joke" academically^[3], and he was suspended in 1999 when he refused to report to Flint of the United Hockey League after being demoted there by Flint's parent club, the Manitoba Moose.^[4]

Cyrenne played junior hockey with the Brandon Wheat Kings of the WHL. He was drafted 191st overall by the San Jose Sharks in the 1996 NHL Entry Draft. He attended the Sharks 1997 training camp, but was returned to Brandon, where he was the league's second-leading scorer in 1997–98.

Cyrenne played professionally in several leagues, including the IHL and AHL. He saw action primarily as a third-line, defensive player. He spent the bulk of his career in lower-level leagues.

He retired in 2004, and was initially employed by the True North Group, the parent company of his former team, the Manitoba Moose.^[5] Cyrenne currently resides in Winnipeg with his wife Tara and is employed by the Birchwood Automotive Group.
