John Carlson has had an ugly season. Sure, he’s got the third-worst goals-against count in the league, but that’s not the true source of the ugliness.

Oh thank god that’s over now.

I think he looks sharp now! Like Samson in reverse, the haircut pretty much guarantees big performances from JC74 coming up.

But it’s time to give those lovely locks one last goodbye.
