More playoff beard fun

Hope you enjoyed the first installment of "Pete's Playoff Beard" a few days ago. Hopefully the Canucks pull their socks up (let's just not talk about last night, okay?) so his beard has a chance to reach Grizzly Adams-esque proportions soon.

Speaking of playoff beards, here are a couple more fun stories that I recently came across. First off there is this entertaining read from The Hockey News, featuring some wicked photos of Chris Mason and Scott Neidermayer, as well as some advice on how to tell playoff-Daniel from playoff-Henrik.

Secondly, there is this commercial which was posted on Puck Daddy two weeks ago. It is YouTube gold:



Too bad the boys in the ad couldn't help Sidney Crosby out. The dude is trying but, as you can see from this picture, not succeeding very well in his playoff beard efforts.

Pete's Playoff Beard - Part 1

My buddy Pete has decided to grow a playoff beard for the Canucks postseason run, and I thought it would be entertaining to document the progress of what will hopefully be a beard worthy of Confucius come mid-June. Fortunately Pete also thought this was a good idea - otherwise this ongoing feature would be both creepy and borderline illegal. Enjoy!


This is Pete's beard as of May 3, 2009. The Canucks began their playoff quest on April 15.
