Last night was monumental for the St. Louis Blues, as they defeated the Chicago Blackhawks in the Winter Classic.
During the bout, defenseman Cam Fowler would celebrate 1,000 games played in the NHL, along with scoring two goals that night.
Of course, the Blues would feel elated with the outcome of the game that night as they would later celebrate in the locker room.
Spirits would fly freely, and the Blues would bust open some beers, and celebrate the night.
But could it land them in some hot water?
Here you can see them busting open some Bud Lights, which for the league itself, the highlights could be construed as the team engaging in questionable behavior as athletes are considered role models.
The NFL has a similar policy that bans alcohol from flowing freely in the locker rooms, dating back to a piece done in 2016, which covered Mike Shanahan's row over the matter.
Considering the trajectory of the game, allying itself with partners like Body Armor, and influencing young players to be all they can be through hard work, exercise, and practice could the Blues be fined for the footage?
The NHL doesn't treat the game like it's the 70s anymore, and this is not Brian' Burke's era of hockey.
