Daniel Winnik, please don’t shave your beard

Taylor Winnik just broke some news on Twitter. Apparently, her husband Daniel is gung-ho on shaving his beard off.

Taylor just uploaded a screenshot of their text message conversation on Twitter and you guys, this is serious.

I’m going to have to agree with Taylor here, Dan. Let me explain.

The Caps have only lost once in regulation over the last 15 games (12-1-2) and you’ve tallied seven points during that span (2 goals and 5 assists). The fourth line is rolling. Simply put, there’s a lot of mojo in that facial hair.

Plus, and I don’t want to be weird, but let’s be honest – your beard is majestic. It has an Alzner-like bushiness to it that just makes you look more rugged and tough. Basically, you are the Ron Swanson of hockey.

This Daniel Winnik’s cool.

But this Daniel Winnik can cut down a tree and carve 8 chairs out of it.

Plus, I know how much you dig facial hair. I saw what you did to Jumbo a few years back.

So in closing, Dan. Do the right thing. Keep the beard. We love it. Your wife loves it. And we all know that empty patch is going to grow back in five hours anyway.

1/25 Update: Thursday’s game is now a must win!
