Krikor Garo Arman, II (born March 8, 1978) is a retired American professional ice hockey left winger. He was born in West Bloomfield, Michigan. Playing career Krikor played collegiate hockey for the University of Michigan Wolverines for 4 seasons beginning with the 1996-1997 season. As the 14th forward on the roster—having not come from the club team, but, instead, beaten nine others in an open tryout—he went on to win a National Championship in 1998, 2 CCHA regular season championships in 1997 and 2000 and 2 CCHA tournament championships in 1997 and 1999. He is the only player in the University of Michigan school history to score 2 goals in his first collegiate game, scoring on his 2nd and 4th shift of his career. This is quite an accomplishment as he scored relatively few goals the rest of his career. After turning professional in 2000, he played for the Muskegon Fury, Missouri River Otters, and Fort Wayne Komets of the United Hockey League. During the 2001-2002 season, he played for the Macon Whoopee of the East Coast Hockey League. Krikor attended training camp with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks of the American Hockey League at the start of the 2002-2003 season, during which re-aggravation of old injuries led him to retire.
