So while I watching the game last night, I noticed Patrice Bergeron was rocking some facial hair.
At first, I thought he was doing his best Jackie Earle Haley impersonation and I kind of hated his freshly grown fu-manchu. But as the period progressed, I fell in love with the ‘Evil’ Patrice Bergeron look. Mind you, the only reason I’m calling him ‘Evil’ Patrice is because whenever a character had an evil twin on a tv show, like Star Trek, they just tossed a goatee on and boom! Evil.
But after discussing Bergy’s look with some of the ladies on Twitter, BTripp715 found out the reason behind the beard. Matt Kalman of ESPNBoston revealed that Bergeron is growing his beard to promote men’s health as part of the Movemeber Foundation. It’s a great cause and I think more people should get involved and support the Movember Movement! I will say this, if the mustache helps Bergy scores some goals – maybe the rest of the Bruins should throw out their razors!
