Summary
A special edition of Larry and the Big Man with Larry and Jay featuring Pittsburgh Penguins legend and Hockey Hall of Famer Joe Mullen. Joey looks back on growing up in Hell’s Kitchen, New York, playing roller hockey before finding the ice, and how Emile Francis helped open the door to his hockey career. Joey also shares stories from his time at Boston College, going undrafted, becoming one of the greatest American-born goal scorers in NHL history, and what it took to score in a tougher, more physical era. He reflects on joining the Penguins, helping change the culture of the locker room, playing for Bob Johnson, winning Stanley Cups, and the special connection he still feels with Pittsburgh fans. Plus, Joey talks about today’s faster NHL, his 500th goal, his first two NHL goals just seconds apart, old movie stories with Jay, and why he still follows the teams he played for.
