Anyone whose ever played a full game of hockey knows that you can get extremely sweaty and smell anything but fresh. Now imagine just how sweaty a player's beard would be after a grueling, hard fought win in, oh let's say...Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final?

This put Matt Murray's girlfriend, Christina Sirignano, in a bit of an awkward situation on Sunday night. Following the Penguins cup win, the couple celebrated the joyous moment with a kiss that made for a pretty humorous TV moment.

Having just sweat under a mask for more than an hour, Murray's beard must have been pretty darn sweaty, which would explain his girlfriend's reaction. Well, when Sirignano posted a picture of the moment on Instagram she took the opportunity to explain her reaction in the caption.

 

My back-to-back Stanley Cup Champion ❤️ PSA: he tasted fine but his beard was so sweaty it was like I was kissing Beckham 😘

Holdup, Beckham? As in David Beckham? No, no. The Beckham Sirignano is referring to is the couple's adorable Newfoundland pup, who also happens to have his very own Instagram account. 

 

We 💛 # 30 🐧

Seems like a pretty accurate comparison. We bet this pup can't wait to get his drool into the Stanley Cup when Murray gets his day with it.
