My thoughts exactly.
Both were excellent 200 foot players for the offense they brought. Loob was a great PKer and was a scoring threat when a man down.
Mullen more so, but both were tougher than you would think at first glance, never afraid to go to the scary areas in a very rough era of the NHL. Tenacity to burn.
Both were awesome to me as a kid. I met Loob in the airport with my dad as he was leaving Calgary to go back to Sweden. I got his autograph and he talked to us for about 5 minutes.
I met Joey Mullen at a McDonalds. Got his autograph and laughed as he pointed out I was wearing different socks. Told me it was OK, that he sometimes does it too.
Real toss up to me but in the end had to go with the boy from Hells Kitchen.
