Stamkos gets annoyed with Tampa Bay fans for throwing garbage on the ice after Bolts' win

Throwing garbage on the ice at a hockey game is never a good idea. It seems especially silly after your team just pulled off a huge win to get back into the Stanley Cup Final. Following Tampa Bay's 6-2 win over Colorado at home Monday night, Lightning captain Steven Stamkos was clearly annoyed as he was celebrating with his teammates and fans started throwing garbage on the ice. Stamkos pleaded with the crowd to stop, and it was clear he was getting annoyed.

It's still not exactly clear why some fans felt the need to pelt the ice with their beer cans and other trash. It's worth noting that this is something the NHL very much frowns upon and has penalized teams in the past when their fans got out of control. The Lightning faithful may want to watch out for that.
