Joseph Paul Mulvey (born September 27, 1958) is a Canadian retired ice hockey left winger. He played in the National Hockey League with the Washington Capitals, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Los Angeles Kings between 1978 and 1982. Mulvey was born in Sudbury, Ontario and raised in Merritt, British Columbia.




Playing career


In 1972, Mulvey began his career playing in the BCJHL for the Kamloops Rockets, remaining with the team when they relocated to become the Merritt Centennials in 1973. His rights were then traded to the Edmonton Oil Kings of the WCHL for four players from the Kamloops Chiefs in 1974. Mulvey similarly remained with the Oil Kings after the team was relocated to Portland, Oregon to become the Portland Winterhawks after the dissolution of the Portland Buckaroos in 1975. He was drafted 20th overall in the second round of the 1978 NHL Amateur Draft by the Washington Capitals and played three seasons with the team. Mulvey took the role of an enforcer on the ice and was noted for his aggressiveness and stature, setting a record for the most penalty minutes logged in a single season on the Capitals at the time, with 240 penalty minutes collected in the 1979-80 season. Prior to the 1981–82 NHL season, he was sent to the Pittsburgh Penguins as compensation for the Capitals signing of Orest Kindrachuk. He would later be claimed on waivers by the Los Angeles Kings during the middle of the season.
It was during his brief tenure with the Kings that he would be involved in one of the most controversial incidents in the NHL. On January 24, 1982 in a game against the Vancouver Canucks, a fight broke out, and Kings' Head Coach Don Perry ordered Mulvey out onto the ice to fight. Mulvey, who had just returned from a recent suspension, refused, which angered Coach Perry who then accused him of not standing up for his teammates. Mulvey was benched for the rest of the game, and was placed on waivers a week later. Coach Perry would later be fined and suspended for the incident, Mulvey would never play another game in the NHL. As he was seen as someone who would not stand up for his teammates when the time came.




Coaching career


For many years he was the head coach of the Reston Raiders of the Capital Beltway Hockey League. He then served as the head coach of the Virginia Statesmen of the Eastern Elite Amateur Hockey League and also coached Tier II hockey for the Prince William Panthers Hockey Club in Woodbridge, Virginia.




Personal life


After his playing career, Mulvey returned to the Washington, D.C.-area and settled in Reston, Virginia, where he bought a tennis club and turned it into a hockey facility with two rinks. His rink was instrumental in the growth of hockey in the Northern Virginia region and continues today under different ownership as SkateQuest of Reston.
His older brother, Grant Mulvey, had a long career with the NHL's Chicago Black Hawks.
