Grant "Granny" Mulvey (born September 17, 1956) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player [1] who played all but 12 games of his 586-game National Hockey League (NHL) career with the Chicago Black Hawks. A long line of injuries forced Mulvey to retire from the NHL. He is the brother of Paul Mulvey, who also played in the NHL.

Mulvey once held the record for being the youngest player since expansion in 1967 to score an NHL goal, scoring his first goal at the age of 18 years, 32 days. On October 3, 2013, Aleksander Barkov surpassed this feat by one day, scoring against the Dallas Stars at the age of 18 years, 31 days.

On February 3, 1982 in a game against the St. Louis Blues, Mulvey scored five goals and added two assists for seven points, setting a franchise record for most goals in a game. In the same game, he tied the record (shared with eleven others) for most goals in single period (4).

Grant has made his home in Chicago dedicating time to the Chicago Blackhawk Alumni Association. He is currently an active board member and Treasurer for the Blackhawk Alumni Association. As with many former athletes in Chicago, Grant values the opportunity to give back to the community by supporting many great charities.

Mulvey is a proud member of the Illinois Hockey Hall of Fame (2020 Inductee).

Now Grant is a proud father of his two children, Lindsey and Kyle. In his free time he tends to ride his motorcycle and play HBG with his grandchildren, Harrison(12), Bennett(10),Bradford (10),Charlotte(7),Harlow (1).
