There is always something magical about the month of November, it is a time for family, celebration and to give back. One of the newer movements highlighting the month is the ‘Movember’ campaign, where men around the world raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health with their stashes.

The New York Islanders announced on Wednesday that eight of their stars have all pledged to grow moustaches for the entire month to join the National movement. Josh Bailey, Blake Comeau, Michael Grabner, Travis Hamonic, Andrew MacDonald, Matt Martin, Al Montoya and Matt Moulson will all be wearing stashes for a great cause.

For Moulson, the cause has hit close to home, as his wife’s family has had battles with prostate cancer.  The forward also has teamed up with Sportschirps.com to create a unique t-shirt for Movember.

Fans interested in purchasing the special tee, can check out the link below to pick one up:
