...for the St. Valentine's Day Hair Massacure. I pass this along without cynicism or irony. Patrick O'Sullivan is what my mother would call a good egg. Actually my mother doesn't say that. I guess it's me, then.
Yesterday we pinked Edmonton Oiler Patrick O'Sullivan. Had the honour of slappin' the bleach and Kali Pink on him while using the opportunity to familiarize him with our crazy event. Now... when I say slappin' - I'm not kidding. There was 35 minutes to get this man bleached, rinsed and pinked before the press conference. Yikes! I figured at the speed that brush was going that someone (or someone's lens) was going to be in proximity to a flying splotch... I was lucky. Especially not Nicki's lens.... Patrick was very nice, quite humble and I think moved by our event. I gotta admit, we have dreamt about Oiler involvement for several years now. Last year Ethan Moreau and Ales Hemsky shaved, now we have a pink Patrick!!! How sweet is that! (via Hair Massacure: Patrick O'Sullivan - Oilers support HM)

Seriously?
This happened over the weekend? ‘Cause when I saw POS at the Night Train bobblehead game, his hair was much shorter than that. Like, stubbly, as if it was just growing back in after he’d been shaved bald.
And I had a pretty good look at him, since I was sitting in the Ice Box section, just a few rows in back of the visitors bench.

Oh, okay....
Now that I check the date on the post you quoted, it makes sense. This actually happened a couple of weeks ago, and what I saw was the stubble growing back. I’m sure the dye washed off, or something.
I will give POS this: It takes a man who is secure in his manhood to allow himself to be tinted like that, even for a good cause.
I'm betting that...
… it went like this…
1) He gets his hair dyed pink then shaved for this charity event.
2) He doesn’t much care for the pink look, so he shaves the whole thing off to get rid of it all (or it’s pre-miditated murder on the stubble.)
3) You see him a couple days later with the first signs of new growth.
Either way it’s pretty cool of him to do this. It’d have been even cooler for him to have the pink dye job done a couple weeks earlier to raise awareness, then shaved on V-day for the event. I’m sure they would have raised a ton more money and the cause would have gained national coverage both in Canada and in the States if he had the nads to wear his hair pink for a couple weeks before the day of the massacure.
PS. I just realized that ‘massacre’ is misspelled on purpose to make it ‘mass a cure’. Gee ain’t I dumb.
