ST. LOUIS – St. Louis Blues defenseman Marco Scandella squares off in a hair-raising battle. Marco is having a beard and mustache growing competition with a Washington University physician at Siteman Cancer Center Dr. Russell Pachynski.

Dr. Pachynski stopped by the FOX 2 studios to show off his facial hair progress. At last check, Pachynski is 28% ahead of Scandella.
