Chicago Black Hawks remove logo from dressing room floor and we now know why
Dating back to as long as many can remember, a simple tradition in hockey that suggests those do not step on the organizations logo which is placed on the floor in the dressing room- many have broken that, including Justin Bieber in Chicago.
Even Andrew Shaw called out Justin Bieber after he stepped on the logo
There's an unwritten rule (always the worst rules) in hockey that states if you're in a team's locker room, you better not step on the logo that is emblazoned on the floor. Do so, and you will feel the wrath of that team.
To be clear, not all teams participate in this stupid tradition - the New Jersey Devils have a tiny logo on their floor that you can step on and no one cares. On the walls near the ceiling, they have drawings of all the trophies the team and players have won over the years, so if you want to step on Martin Brodeur's Vezina Trophies, you better be in a Lionel Richie video or conducting an inception.

Many have suggested, why don't you put the logo on the ceiling if it's so sacred? Citing a comment made from Peter Bottle in 2016.
The Blackhawks have now taken this into consideration, and have removed their logo from the floor- and have actually placed it on the ceiling.
For reference, here is what the 'new' logo placement on the ceiling looks like
Eleven years later, fans are still holding Justin Bieber accountable
With this change coming to the Blackhawks dressing room, do you believe other NHL teams should take note and follow lead?
