Washington Capitals and Wizards owner Ted Leonsis is prepared to go voluntarily bald to support his teams.

Leonsis says he will shave his head if both of his franchises advance to the finals.

He made the pledge to Jason Pugh of local station NBC 4 earlier this week.

"That would be the least that I could do," Leonsis said. "I bet we could do something for charity ... because it would be a very unique, once in a lifetime achievement."

The Capitals lead the New York Rangers 2-1 in their best-of-seven second-round playoff series, while the Wizards and Atlanta Hawks are tied 1-1 in their second-round matchup.

Earlier this season, Wizards center Marcin Gortat revealed that Leonsis told the team he would get a mohawk if the Wizards made the playoffs.

While he hasn't followed through on that pledge yet, he would almost certainly have to shave his head if both teams qualified for their respective championship series.
