SamJamIam Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 With how badly the Oilers were getting dicked by the refs in that game, scoring a tying goal (that counted) with that little time left totally called for a ridiculous celebration.

DeNiro Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 That's why Yakupov is getting praised and Ovechkin isn't. Premeditated, douchey celebration for an individual accomplishment VS an enthusiastic reaction from a 19 year old kid scoring a huge, clutch goal.

Captain Aerosex Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I'm not sure how huge the goal was. Yes it was a game tying goal, but where do you go from there. What would he do if he ever scores a series clincher or a stanley cup winning goal? Do a flying leap into the crowd? Ovechkin had just as much right to celebrate. He was ripping the league apart at the time, and had just scored his 50th goal. Is that not a good reason to celebrate? I don't see how that move is any more premeditated then the Burrows bow and arrow, or any of those fist pump/fist drag celebrations. I think Flames fans are just mad cause he did that move better than Fleury though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Game-tying goal with just seconds left after the team was being screwed over all game...pretty huge for somebody in just their 3rd NHL game, he had every right to get excited. Ovechkin had already scored 50 in a season twice before and like I said, individual accomplishment with a much more showboaty celebration. No, I don't think that's a good reason to celebrate like that. Much more premeditated than the usual fist pump which is mostly a reaction and not very flashy. And Burrows' celly is a tribute to his dead friend and he only pulls it out for big goals, also completely different. And I dunno, I like Fleury's better still. The rolling on the ice is the cherry on top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wshdrvvn Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 don't really care. i think he looked like a tosser not celebrating with his teammates though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiun Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Well, happy for him scoring that goal, but that did seem a little over the top. I think more than anything I don't like the fact that he basically ignored his team going to congratulate him and instead of celebrating with them he hot dogs it down the ice. Big goal though, so I guess it's okay, but if he does it all the time I think it'll get tiresome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdeath Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Yeah, Gagner being the gremlin in Quick's equipment wasn't a factor at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jovocop55 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 can understand his excitement.. but maybe a bit too much.. if it's in the playoff overtime goal, then make sense.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marleau_12 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 I hope anybody who has a problem with these celebrations never go to a Canucks game.. though it seems like Rogers Arena is often filled with these kind of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayStation Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Much better than the Canucks choosing not to celebrate at all. Guranteed Yakupovs celebration pumped his team up even more than the late game tying goal alone would of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
