Daywalker Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 The Gillis Goatee. I am really having a hard time figuring it out. I mean, not too many goatees continue on to the neck portion of the body, at least not to the extent that this one does. Pondering the goatee, some different theories come to mind. Is this the beginning of the world's longest treasure trail? Is this Gillis' own revolutionary version of the playoff beard? Perhaps it will catch on, and teams in February and March that are below the playoff bar looking up in a playoff race will grow the Gillis goatee due to superstitious reasons, especially if the Canucks go on to make the playoffs. What will be the legacy of the Gillis goatee? Will it go down in history with a positive light on it, and will people in the future make comments like they make on other great facial hair in history, like when I walk down the street and hear "that guy's got a mean Abraham Lincoln", or "check out that dude's Gizzly Adam beard". Other famous facial hair have gone down with the men who sported them, such as the Hitler moustache which went a good 50 years without being seen until Jaromir Jagr, for unknown reasons, unsuccessfully tried to bring it back. So what do you guys really think of the Gillis Goatee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley2051 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 It's new, which is apparently also the direction of this team...... Great thread! Maybe some pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamu101 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 His goatee just annoys me especially when we dont have a #1 anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everybody Hates Raymond Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 He's growing it to hide his grotesque double chin because he'd rather try to hide it with a beard than the effort of losing weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBackup Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Its the fact that he has this layer of fat beneath his chin, and that he shaved the sides. So now he just has a furry bulge beneath his face and it looks wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Unkempt & sprawling as the Burns Bog! Dude always looks as if he's been pulled through a hedge backwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shinkaruk_9 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Maybe he was too busy talking trades he forgot to shave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everybody Hates Raymond Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Unkempt & sprawling as the Burns Bog! Dude always looks as if he's been pulled through a hedge backwards. Judging how the fanbase treats Gillis that's not far off from the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayStation Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 His goatee makes as much sense as the moves he's made. Perhaps to collect the sweat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyM Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 After seeing that, the team doesn't look that bad in comparison. Sayyyy..... maybe that's the plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rounoush Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 It's clearly because Evil Gillis has killed Regular Gillis and taken over his spot. Just like Spock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tearloch7 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 He intentionally grew the beard to distract those easily distracted by a goatee on a man who could give a lesser fig about what anyone else thinks about what he looks like .. just like that, I think ..
