State police are investigating the after-hours bar in Woodbury, N.J., where Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Pelle Lindbergh had his last drink, and local authorities say they may revoke the ordinance that allowed the tavern to stay open until 5 a.m.

Lindbergh was legally drunk when his sports car slammed into a concrete wall about 5:40 a.m. Sunday, according to police. The accident, which seriously injured two passengers, left Lindbergh brain dead. He was removed from life-support systems Tuesday after several of his organs were taken for transplants.

Family and teammates gathered at a private memorial service in Philadelphia Wednesday to say farewell to Lindbergh. A public memorial service is planned for tonight before the Flyers’ game with the Edmonton Oilers at the Spectrum. Burial will be in Sweden.
