NHL player Jarret Stoll is in some trouble. The Los Angeles Kings center was arrested Friday in Las Vegas on charges of possessing cocaine and ecstasy, according to multiple reports.
The 32-year-old is a two-time Stanley Cup champion with the Kings, and vaulted to pseudo-celebrity status after he began dating sportscaster Erin Andrews in 2013.

Our organization is concerned, and has begun conducting a thorough internal investigation. While we continue to actively gather facts, we are withholding further comment at this time."
