Auston Matthews puts his iconic Mo on the line

Hockey icon and facial hair connoisseur, Auston Matthews, recently announced he will be parting with his beloved moustache – for a price. With one of the most talked about moustaches in the NHL, Auston has committed to shaving off his trademark Mo in the name of men’s health, working with Movember in a bid to raise $134,000 by the end of November.

“I’m willing to shave it off, but only for a good cause,” Matthews declares in the video. “Your donation will help Movember improve the lives of men. The fate of this incredible moustache is now in your very capable hands. Don’t let me down.”

To formally launch the campaign, Matthews stars in a ‘mean tweets’-style video, where he finds out what the world really thinks of his moustache – reading, reacting and responding to some of the internet’s funniest comments about his notorious Mo before committing to shaving it off in the name of men’s health.Whether you love it or hate it, fans are encouraged to donate to Auston’s Mo Space.

“We’re so excited to be working alongside Auston Matthews to raise vital funds for men’s health,” says Todd Minerson, Country Director for Movember Canada. “Auston’s moustache is iconic. When you think of the NHL and moustaches, it’s one of the first that comes to mind. This is why it’s especially exciting for us to have Auston willing to put that trademark Mo on the line to help us raise awareness and funds for Movember during a year when conversations around men’s health have never been more important.”
