QUOTE OF THE DAY
PAGE 11
"My teeth weren't that good to begin with, so hopefully I can get some better ones."
Duncan Keith via Bleacherreport.com
The top-five all time leaders in points in the NHL playoffs all played together on the Edmonton Oilers from 1980-1987
— NHL.COM
Q: When was the last time the Florida Panthers made the NHL playoffs?
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
A: 2000
THE MORNING BREW As Playoffs intensify, so do the beards
It starts as a five oclock shadow but progresses rapidly as the victories pile up. Eventually, when the men step out onto the ice before each game, they look like they have been eschewing modern society for the isolation of a cabin deep in the woods that runs on a wooden furnace and has no electricity or running water.
With hockey playoffs in full swing, it's only a matter of time before the playoff beards begin to pop-up on the television screens. The intensity of playoff hockey is unmatched. At any moment, the puck could take a weird bounce, deflecting off an unsuspecting skate, shin guard, or even helmet and ricochet into the goal, moving one team on, and sending another home.
And as the beards grow thicker, so does the intensity.
Playoff beards have long been a favorite tradition of mine. They remind me of times when men could still be men. When they wouldn't go around lying in tanning beds, waxing their chests or
wearing jeans that fit a little too tight.
Legend has it that the playoff beard started on the New York Islanders of the early 1980s. The Islanders played many games in a few nights, and simply never found time to shave. They went on to win four consecutive Stanley Cups, and the tradition was born.
Of course, not every hockey player is capable of growing a beard straight out of the 19th century. Younger players, such as former NHL MVP Sidney Crosby, who was just 21 years old when he hoisted the
cup, particularly struggle with growing playoff beards. Instead of a full beard, Crosby famously had barely more than a thin moustache and a chinstrap that couldn't connect to the chin.
But for every Sidney Crosby, there are two Jean-Sebastian Gigueres, whose legend grows with their beards. In 2003, Giguere, then a goaltender for the Anaheim Might Ducks (now known simply as the Ducks), backstopped his seventh seeded team to the Stanley Cup Finals. Both he and his wife hated his beard, but he kept it going until the Ducks were finally eliminated in game seven.
Despite losing, Giguere was rewarded for his excellent play in the tournament by winning the Conn Smythe trophy as the playoff MVP despite not winning the Stanley cup.
But that's the great thing about the NHL playoffs, despite the seven-game series, any team can beat any other, especially when their goaltender catches fire
and his outstanding play can light a spark in his team deep into the playoffs.
Currently, out in the western division, the eight-seeded Los Angeles Kings hold the series lead over the one-seed San Jose Kings.
With every team playing tough defensively, games frequently enter sudden death overtime, where at any moment, one team's Stanley Cup dreams can die.
And when those dreams die, executives at Gillette, Schick and other razor companies rejoice, knowing that their product is being used once again.
