I just realized this far into the playoffs i don't see those playoff beards. I know the NHL last year was sort of against it but did something official go out? or the league just discouraged the players from growing them?
I had that thought a week or so ago. Think back to that NBC executive receiving all that flack for making a negative comment about the beards. I've always thought they were a horrible look. Most young guys in their early to mid 20s cannot even grow a full beard. In 20 years, we'll look back at pictures of an Amish-looking Jonathan Toews skating with the Cup and wonder why they didn't shave.
