NEWARK, N. Willis McGahee Jersey .J. —Dustin Penner
has the mountain man look. Ryan Carter is working a Three Musketeers-look
moustache. And Zach Parises face is smooth as a babys bum. The playoff facial
hair is all over the map at this Stanley Cup. Playoff beards are still in,
however, and King behemoth Penner leads the way. “Not many guys can grow beard
around their eyes,” said Kings defenceman Rob Scuderi, who sports not a bad bush
himself. “Hes a pretty hairy guy all over,” added L.A. forward Jeff Carter, who
scored the winning overtime goal in Game 2 Saturday to send the Kings home with
a 2-0 lead in the series. “It didnt take him long to start filling his out.” The
facial hair solidarity in the post-season is a tradition. “Its something to
build around,” said Devils forward Ryan Carter. “Its just another one of those
things that reminds you of where youre at.” Added teammate Steve Bernier: “I
started first game of the playoffs and Ive been growing it ever since. “That was
the goal, to go as long as possible.” The size of the beard does not necessarily
denotes playoff success, however. Some players just grow facial hair faster than
others. And some dont really grow it at all. Ryan Carter, for example, opted for
a small but stylish moustache rather than the beard. “The decision is genetic
actually. I dont know if I have a choice to grow the playoff beard,” he
explained. “I dont have really a playoff moustache either but its what Ive got
and what Im wearing.” He points to defenceman Andy Greene and forward
Eric Boulton as having the best beards on a Devils lineup that is not allowed
facial hair during the regular season under club rules. “Andy Greenes got a
thick beard. His looks best though because hes got a little less hair on top
than he does on his chin.” Advised of Carters comments, Greene breaks into a
proud smile and then returns the compliment. “I think hes got the best moustache
in the league going right now,” he said. “Youve got to respect that thing. Its
nice.” The Kings appear to have gone all in when it comes to not shaving. Given
the size of the squad, its mad for some wild-looking dudes. “Some guys are
better than others, but I think everyones in on it,” said Jeff Carter, one of
the big and bushy brigade. Not so in the Devils dressing room where captain
Parise is unashamedly clean-shaven. “Ive been shaving all along,” he said.
Greene knows why. “Zach tried growing one for the first two games. It wasnt
pretty.” Jeff Carter can grow a beard with the best of them. He likes the look.
“At the start it gets little itchy or what not but its been going for so long
now that its pretty comfortable,” said the Kings forward And it makes the
morning grooming easy. “Just get up and go,” said Carter. Terrell Davis Jersey . Tipsarevic was the
only top-10 player not to have won a tournament this year. The Serb is No. 8 in
the world. The second-seeded Monaco was seeking his third title of the year.
Tipsarevic surrendered a 4-1 lead in the second set after a brief rain delay and
he also dropped his serve after a longer, 20-minute interruption in the third.
Knowshon Moreno Jersey . Everest, who held
