What is a playoff beard?
Playoff beards are a tradition among sport teams in North America that began in the greatest league of all, the National Hockey League. When one's team reaches the playoffs, the day before playoffs begin, the players (and/or fans!) capable of growing beards shave off all their facial hair.
