Anthony Duclair has cut his hair and shaved his beard to adhere to the New York Islanders’ strict grooming policies enforced by GM Lou Lamoriello, which include rules on no long hair and no jewelry.
Duclair's compliance with these grooming standards is mandatory during the regular season, and if the Islanders qualify for the playoffs, he may grow his beard back while still having to maintain shorter hair.
The enforced grooming policies are reminiscent of the New York Yankees' longstanding rules, requiring players to maintain specific appearances without long hair or significant facial hair, emphasizing discipline and uniformity within the team.
Former Devils player Kyle Palmieri faced a similar requirement when he joined the Islanders in 2021, illustrating Lamoriello's consistent approach to team rules regarding player appearance throughout his career.
