    new york islanders started the tradition of playoff beards in 1980. players didnt shave until they were out of the playoffs

  • the end

    when the new york islanders dynasty days were over the tradion for the team had stopped.

    In the 1995 playoffs the new jersey devils started growing playoff beards again trying to catch some luck. they went on to win the stanley cup that year and all teams in the playoffs have now started growing playoff beards since that date

    minor league teams and college/ high school teams now sometimes even grow beards.

  • what happens if they lose a game?

    sometimes when teams lose a game or two games in a row they will trim their beard, trying to switch things up
