Baby Thor no more.

Golden Knights center William Karlsson said goodbye to his luscious, golden locks on Wednesday.

Karlsson’s new hairdo was debuted in a video posted by his wife, Emily, and his hairdresser. The video also features music from “Thor: Ragnarok,” the Marvel film where Thor’s iconic golden locks are shaved off by a Stan Lee cameo.

In April, Karlsson placed second in the league for best hair behind former teammate Cody Eakin in the NHL Players’ Association’s annual player poll.

The Knights are gearing up for training camp next month. Rookie camp opens Sept. 14. Main camp opens the following week on Sept. 21.
