Ugliest Photos of Hockey Players

[The Panther]

Just for fun -- and because I'm still at work on Christmas Eve -- how a thread posting the worst pictures of hockey players?

Who's your favorite? And what's his worst / dorkiest / stupidest-looking picture?

I'll kick things off with what must be the worst-ever picture of the Great One:

As Shaquille O'Neal would say, that is "horror-awful". Gretz looks like he can't decide if he's gonna be the first white-guy in New Edition or apply for the cast of General Hospital.

I just googled "ugly hockey players" and literally half the images were Mike Ricci. Poor guy.

Lol... nearly fell off my chair at that Dave Kryskow picture...!

He's got the lot: receding hairline, mullet, side-growth, front-curls, porn-stache.

Gillette should use this photo as an Ad for their products.

Seen em before, but seriously.

I'm stuck at work too. I have no problem letting them pay me to goof off on these boards. Anyway, if I was in first class and had to sit next to Ryan Miller, I would ask to be moved to coach.

To be honest, look at Ricci on his draft day. Clean cut, all of his teeth, a very normal looking guy. Ricci just had an image to uphold later in his career, and he did it. He had the long hair by choice, the "garage band" look. The teeth he never replaced. Ricci wasn't a bad looking guy, but he never seemed to mind his own look since a haircut would have changed it.

I came here to say "Ricci," but JAGORIM JARG takes the cake.

If I understand the OP correctly, he's not that interested in pictures of ugly hockey players but rather in ugly, awkward pictures of normal looking players. Even though it's been posted numerous times on the main board, I think this gem fits the criteria easily:

This one is also nice:

Admittedly, this is more from the Ricci territory:

Good player, not so good mustache.

Good player, not so good mustache.

It looks like he used lipstick in that pic.

Phil Kessel looks like he eats a lot of candy...

Phil Kessel looks like he drags women back to his cave by their hair.

NHL is bad for your looks.

Yeah, he wasn't an ugly looking guy at all. He just.........let himself go and preferred to look like a Bobby Clark-era type of player I guess. hehe

It's amazing how, no matter what sport, the players from the 1970's all look so dirty and nasty like they smell and need a shower in their head shots and cards.

No Gino Odjick or Tyler Kennedy?
