The Chicago Wolves defeated the the Springfield Thunderbirds in the Calder Cup Final of the AHL, four games to one this past Saturday.
The Wolves closed out the series with a 4-0 victory on Saturday evening, and it appears that goaltender Alex Lyon wasn't too fond of the Springfield crowd.
As per NHL insider Frank Seravalli and the AHL on Twitter, the netminder was suspended for his actions during the team's celebration:
"Note: Don't flip the double bird after winning the Calder Cup."
After they won the Calder Cup and were taking their team championship photo, Lyon decided to give an obscene gesture to the camera:
It wasn't the only time he did it either, as he let Thunderbird fans know his feelings immediately after the Wolves won the game:
