So when Gratton scored on Tuesday for his Finnish club, Assat, he had to follow through with a celebration he’s talked about in the dressing room all season: drinking from the opposing goalie’s water bottle:
You never know when you're going to get a bit parched, right? Maybe this is becoming a trend?
Gratton’s goal would give Assat a 3-1 lead, but they would eventually fall to SaiPa 5-4.
The goal upped Gratton’s all-time professional statline to 60 goals in 259 career games. But like we said, the 33-year-old forward is more known for a different stat: 2,066 penalty minutes, which include a staged fight or two.
