All Hail The Mullet!: Ok, so who has the best Mullet? My vote before seeing this Mullet gallery was, of course, the one and only Barry Melrose (and yes I know he's not as popular with some here as he is with me, no matter what the reason). But I have to say, as much as I hate his guts, it just might be Mike Ricci. And does a good Mullet make one a better player? It couldn't hurt. Votes anyone?

Amonte had some wicked hair back in the day. Bad mullet day? Call Mullet Man!

Some of those guys (Like Handzus) just have long hair, and long hair does not a mullet make. As the old saying goes, "Business in the front, Party in the back." So those Jagr and Gretzky pictures definitely get my vote. But it was Rick Tocchet and Peter Zezel who taught me how to properly grow my mullet back in 1987.

Oh for the love of Pete, goddam - Ron freaking Duguay? Why not just cut out the middle man and go right after the lead singer from Styx? (sidenote: may be a Rangers thing)

Greetings to all from the American Mid-west. I "did" hair for several years, long ago and far away, and remember when the mullet was called the shag. My vote for number one is Jagr, followed by Gretzky, McSorley and Melrose tied for third. Peluso, Smyth, Duguay, Handzus in descending order from there. Ricci and Amonte are too long, all around, for mullets. I had a super mullet, as did my youngest son, years ago. I wore it short in the front to keep the hair out of my face. It was about 12 inches long in the back. My son wore his hair the same way. Some girls were jealous. Now he's in the Armed Forces. No more need be said. Go, Red Wings!

yes weedy, it's a rangers thing. he happened to be popular just around the time i started watching hockey. (btw, that poster from ebay should be arriving this week) Why not just cut out the middle man and go right after the lead singer from Styx? styx? nah. duguay always reminded me more of andy gibb.

Classic Jagr gets my vote. By far. Though Marty McSorley wasn't too far off. Ricci's long hair was definitely noticeable, but I don't know if it qualified as a mullet.
