Michael E. "Mike" Holmes (born March 18, 1955 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian former ice hockey defenceman. He is a member of the Northeastern University athletics Hall of Fame. Holmes was enshrined in 1991 for his accomplishments in the sport of ice hockey.

Holmes still holds many records at Northeastern. His 127 career assists still ranks number one all time for the Huskies. He is also the all-time leading scorer among defensemen with 152 points, which puts him tenth all time at the school.

After leaving Northeastern, Holmes spent the next four seasons playing minor league hockey, playing in the International Hockey League for the Grand Rapids Owls as well as brief spells in the American Hockey League for the Rochester Americans and the Binghamton Dusters and one more season in the Continental Hockey League for the Grand Rapids Grizzlies before retiring in 1981.

Holmes now operates as the director of coaching for the Tri-Valley Minor Hockey Association located in Dublin, California. Holmes recently coached the Tri-Valley Blue Devils Midget 18AA team to the National Championships where the team placed 5th in the country. He currently resides in San Ramon, California with his wife. His son Chris is a student at San Francisco State University and is working towards gaining his teaching credentials.
