In what has become a yearly sign of spring, the Tampa Bay Lightning are set to go bald for a very worthy cause. The fifth annual Tampa Bay’s Cut For A Cure is currently raising funds and awareness for the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. The Bolts represented by a group of players, staff, and even Thunderbug are going under the razor as part of this great event.
The event is closed to the public, but the organization will be well represented by 30 staff members on Wednesday at 1 pm. The players participating this year are Ondrej Palat, B.J. Crombeen, Radko Gudas and Mark Barberio.
Yes, Mark Barberio. He of the long, flowing, curly locks. The man who hasn’t cut his hair in two years. Barbs hinted he would wait until scoring his first NHL goal before going for a trim. After scoring his first and second goals on January 19th, Fans will be in for a shock when they attend Thursday’s game. (Photo/ Sue Ferlita)
