Welcome to KIRK MULLER'S #1 Fan's Homepage!!
The UnOfficial Kirk Muller Page
"I like Kirk!(but you don't know that!!!)"
Welcome to the one and only page dedicated to the NHL's most under rated, hardest working player, Kirk Muller. A 17-year veteran, Muller has played on 6 teams, first being drafted by my favorite team, the New Jersey Devils in 1984, then moved on to win a cup with the Montreal Canadiens, then to a short lived stint with the New York Islanders, back up to Canada with the Toronto Maple Leafs and then off to the Sunshine State with the Florida Panthers, he is currently a member of the Dallas Stars.
Kirk Muller is not only a great hockey player, but a class act. I have followed the career of Kirk Muller since I was 6 years old, in 1987. After Muller got traded in 1991 to the Habs I've had to opportuninty to see Muller live on only the few times he has appeared at the Meadowlands arena, usually twice a year. I have traveled to Madison Square Garden, and yes, even to Canada (Maple Leaf Gardens) to see Kirk Muller. Being the class act that he is every time he comes out the runway he smiles and waves and even says "Hey! What's up?" sometimes. Not only has he done this he has also thrown four pucks over the glass to me and he gave me the stick that he used in the game against the Devils on November 21, 1998. I have only once seen a player give his stick to a fan in the audience, to be given the stick that Kirk Muller used that game is an honor. There are not many guys in the NHL like Kirk Muller today.
