The rumour is that it stopped after an incident with Peters in the dressing room before a morning skate:
Quote:
”Peters walked in before a morning pre-game skate and said ‘Hey Johnny, I’m sick of you drinking that purple s---’ ” a source told TSN, with Peters, who was the Flames head coach, referring to Gaudreau’s celebratory drink tradition with his teammates. “He said ‘I’m sick of seeing this squirting other guys in the mouth stuff.’
“He then walked out like nothing ever happened. You could hear a pin drop in the room, everything went dead silent. Gaudreau just sat down in his stall, didn’t say a word.”

So blame Peters. Or Trudeau. Wait, what?!?
