Adding yet another opinion to the stack, celebrations after wins or goals is inherently not a bad thing. Whether it is an individual ramping up after a key goal or a team celebration after an earned victory, celebration of human achievements in the midst of competition is what sport is about, and there should be nothing to stomp on that. Like all things, there is a limit and application for such celebrations though, and things that are done to the excess or directed harmfully at others should obviously be condemned or criticized. After all, hockey is a team sport first, and unlike other sports cannot be carried by a single player. As well, the people out the ice every night are just that, people (albeit well-payed ones). It can be expected that they will have human emotions, and should avoid being taunted to an unnecessary degree, which gets in the way of the game. For these reasons, moderation is needed in terms of celebration. Things that try to show one player as more valuable than the team effort, or taunts that only negatively attack others, should be discouraged. Otherwise, things that display a bit of personality in light of an individual or team success shouldn't be quashed by critics and the old-school mentality. ![]() ![]() Thank you to Ham and Sulo for the sigs!
