Canucks lose Movember bet, post ‘Go Habs Go’ pic

December 1 marks the official end of Movember.

It’s also the day the Montreal Canadiens got to cash in on their bi-coastal bet with the Vancouver Canucks.

The two teams faced off in a friendly facial hair competition to see who could raise the most money and, according to the Canucks’ blog post, the Habs and their moustaches “mopped the floor” with the Canucks for the second consecutive year.

And while there are no real losers in a competition that raises money and promotes awareness for the fight against cancer, the Canucks did have to pay the price.

As per the teams’ agreement, the Canucks’ Twitter and Facebook accounts have been sporting a photo of a Habs fan with a “Go Habs Go” sign.

This was the third year the Canucks and Canadiens faced off in the friendly facial hair competition.

Needless to say, the Canucks are ready to move on … to Decembeard?
