Around SBN: This Should Encourage Juan Mata

Join the Hockey Wilderness Movember Team

In case you haven't noticed, it's November 1st. That means one thing, Movember has started!

Movember challenges men to change their appearance and the face of men's health by growing a moustache. The rules are simple, start Movember 1st clean-shaven and then grow a moustache for the entire month. The moustache becomes the ribbon for men's health, the means by which awareness and funds are raised for cancers that affect men. Much like the commitment to run or walk for charity, the men of Movember commit to growing a moustache for 30 days.

In 2009, global participation of Mo Bros and Mo Sistas climbed to 255,755, with over one million donors raising $42 Million US equivalent dollars for Movember's global beneficiary partners.

If you recall, the Wild were all over Movember last year. From Michael Russo's column last season:

Defenseman Nick Schultz introduced the idea to teammates in honor of his friend Casey Heintz's father, Hugh, who is battling prostate cancer. Schultz registered the Wild as the Minnesota Mo Bro's and made a donation on behalf of the team.

"My grandfather's had prostate cancer before, so cancer in general has been involved in my family, so I thought it would be kind of fun for the guys to do," Schultz said.

That said, we'll be covering Movember like a blanket, bringing you the best facial hair from across the NHL, and yes, we're participating too!

Help us support the 1 in 2 men that will be diagnosed with cancer. Join the Hockey Wilderness Movember team: http://us.movember.com/register/140586

So, post your Mo, your favorite Mo's from across the NHL and join us in changing the face of mens health. Seriously.

once I'm off blackberry

I’ll get signed up. I was going to draw a mustache in throughout the month, but wasn’t sure how that would fly in job interviews.

Put your picture into MS Paint, and draw it on there. ;-)

Although it might have worked for today’s interview. Note to self – bring fake mustache to urology interviews during November.

Thinking since I can’t grow one, I’ll do a mustache of the day on my blog. Because Movember I can get behind, esp. Now that #overexposure month is over.

I’m thinking about it, but I could never leave the house with my 12 year-old-like stache. Seriously, I could count my facial hair one by one.

Clutterbuck cheats!

Clutter didn’t start Movember with a clean shave – he already has a stache worthy of a 70s porn star. Last year he was a bit Clark Gable – this year he’s more trashy trucker. But it’s all for a good cause!

got a good look last night

We got a good look at Burns stache during warm ups before last night’s game. Hilarious! Obviously lots of Mo cheaters on the team, but they are good for a laugh. Maybe they will give the other guys something to strive for.

Zannon shaved his beard but left a fluffy red full stache.

We’re wondering if some of the kids on the team are even able to grow a stache? Falk, Gillies, Wellman?
