Sam Bennett, the lead scorer, has a ROBUST and lush beard going on there. He's giving Lord Debling from season three of Bridgerton.

Brad Marchand

Brad Marchand, man. He's an excellent player and he's also a thug who can't stop thugging. He's got the most suspensions in history and most penalized player in the NHL across his career, I believe. And he's only been a Panther since March; he's a career Boston Bruin otherwise. With a playoff beard that frankly could use some work.

"Coach, keep me next season, and I will Miracle Gro this thing, I promise."

He ALSO was traded at the very beginning of March, so basically, these two guys hit the jackpot.

I think last year's was better?

Aleksander Barkov

He got the Cup first, so he did the low skate and then raised it up hard over his head. Every time this happens, I wonder if it will be the day they overdo it and momentum carries them right onto their butt.

Nate Schmidt

Sam scored a hat trick, so I assume he's thanking everyone for all the free ballcaps they hurled at him. Dmitry is just trying to get in line for an autographed one.

Aaron Ekblad

He is right about on par with where he was last year -- which is spectacular. This is showing the kids how it's done.

I'm pleased with this level of hair coverage. Well done. I do wish I'd gotten a better shot of the side, though, because last year he had some serious neck growth.

Sergei Bobrovsky

Bob played very well in goal and I appreciate his messy-as-hell hair, but he was scragglier last year. Did everyone just have more TIME? Was going to seven games instead of six a real BOOST in terms of hair activity!? In unrelated news, I still LOATHE the rubber rat thing.

Are those his real teeth? I'm always so pleased when someone wins the cup with all their original dental blessings.

Letting Tomas be in this photo is just MEAN. He's the babyfaced meat in a keratin sandwich.

Am I correct to like this guy? Or at least not hate him? He seems amusing. He did spark some controversy by saying he didn't think coaches should participate in the handshake line because it's about the players; I see that point but also disagree.

I assume the goalie mask is NOT going to come crashing down on anyone's head.
