If you go by the dictionary, "grizzled" and "grizzly" both have the same meaning; having grey hair.
In common use, though, "grizzled" is generally used to imply "old" or even "unkempt", and "grizzly" is generally used to imply "bad-tempered" (probably alluding to the behaviour of the "grizzly bear")
..in this case, according to the story, either word would apply!
