Beard Martyr and Playoff Picks

In this time of Playoff Beards and such like, it pays to remember those who are prepared to make the great sacrifices for their bearded selves.  Such as the Truck driver sacked by BHP Billiton for refusing to shave off his goatee losing an unfair dismissal claim.  What is this world coming to?

Those who can shave off their NHL playoff beards after the first round include Nashville, St Louis, Vancouver and Winnipeg in the West, and N.Y. Islanders, Ottowa, Pittsburgh and Detroit in the the East.  So I only scored 2 out of 8 :( 

Which goes to show what being an optomist can do for you.

These are my picks for the second round

Tampa Bay over Montreal
NY Rangers over Washington
Annaheim over Calgary
Chicago over Minnesota

Hopefully I improve my average. 

Beards, and a (weak) Chuck Norris joke.

DOES ANYONE ELSE CORRELATE EBERLES HOT STREAK TO HIS SEXY BEARD? PLEASE PROVIDE STATISTICAL PROOFS IN YOUR COMMENTS

A rugged beard creates 100% more awesomeness. This awesomeness transcends the galaxy, to effect everything.
14s beard is such a beard.They only come around once every 2 thousand years. Moses had such a beard. Jesus had a kick ass beard. Now one Jordan Eberle has found the power of the beard.
From ancient scripture
"One beard to rule them all, One beard to find them, One beard to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them."
Chuck Norris is jealous of Ebs epic beard right now.

I can only agree with the sentiments (albeit, Chuck Norris could only ever envy Chuck Norris, I'm sure!).
