Jonathan Toews comments on the most important of topics: playoff beards

The playoffs are soon! The Chicago Blackhawks will once again be competing for the Stanley Cup, and with it comes the annual tradition of growing a playoff beard.

Jonathan Toews (and his soon-to-form mutton chops, I assume) has opinions on a couple of his teammates' performances regarding said incoming playoff facial hair.

Jonathan Toews said Patrick Kane needs to bring back playoff mullet: "If he's a team player he has to take one for the team." #Blackhawks

The Hawks have had success with a certain playoff mullet out and about on the ice, and hockey players are nothing if not superstitious.
