WJC: Canada and their goal celebrations

[pzilla3]

Frankly, what does it really matter. It's a bunch of guys who are playing on the international stage and are pumped because they're finding success.

That "everyone should be boring" argument is getting old.

 

[pzilla3]

I wish I did something that made me so happy on a regular basis.

Awesome.

There is not one 20 year old in the tourney. Maybe some 19 year olds are turning 20 in the new year, but its an under 20 tournament. They are still teenagers, not men.

the inherent significance of the world juniors to canada is obvious...we flock to foreign nations to massively outnumber host nation's fans, follow coverage of the tourney religiously throughout the holidays, and generally (at least i do) look forward to the tourney all year long. this is no different for these guys. they have been watching crosby, getzlaf, mike richards...eberle....rip this tournament up for years, only wishing that one day they can play in it. and you are ********* angry that they are cellying after scoring a goal? on the biggest stage of their career thus far? (i do not care if it is a 7-2 blowout, if you were watching attentively you'd notice the last 3 goals were celebrated without any exuberance at all). i registered on this board simply to call out people like you. you obviously never played hockey at a high level, and your reference to bobby orr harkens back to a time that no longer exists. get with the times. scoring a goal in the wjc for a canadian kid, especially in the 1st or 2nd game he ever plays (and will ever play) in the tourney, is massive. ********** give me a break complaining about their exuberance.

I took one look at your post and totally by-passed it.
Try using capital letters!

Tonight, when you're watching the game and Canada scores you must not cheer, you are only to golf clap and shake hands with your buddies.

 

[Robert604strom]

Ellis and the rest of boys can't hear you. The world junior rings are blocking they're ears.

Winstunt, I'm afraid you're gonna have to throw back at least half of these Canadians you've hooked; You are well over your trolling limit. If the Conservation Officer shows up you're gonna have to pay a hefty fine here.

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

there was very little celebration for canada vs norway

Paragraphs and proper grammar are your friend!! This post is totally unreadable.

 

[YogiCanucks]

Schenn seems like a big dink but even he toned it down after Canada was up by quite a bit. And he had reason to celebrate.

 

[Bobo Fett*]

Whatever happened to just having fun>? Jesus Christ. They do it and they called classless.

Some fans will cry about anything.

 

[Chraa]

IMO, not celebrating after scoring a goal is more disrespectful (not talking about EN ofc).
I mean if you don't celebrate and act like its nothing it kind of seems like you're acting as if you could score whenever and however you wanted.

 

[sepHF]

Can you imagine how fired up you would be to score a goal in the WJC tournament wearing your countries jersey? Cmon.

 

[13 others]

People like you probably want to turn this into college football with penalties for celebrations. That really dulls the sport down and kills a lot of energy and passion for the game.

If you want a classy sport go watch golf or polo

Well to be fair in this thread you have one guy complaining and about 130 people saying they don't have a problem so I guess some people are as much eager to complain about complaining.

 

[King Woodballs]

no respect
they need to earn the respect of everyone

 

[Shrimper]

Anyone got a YT of it?

Ok im from canada first and foremost. But i just cant help but every year i see this and it URKS me to the core. Canada scored their final goal last night and they already had the game in the bag and they're cheering around like they just won the stanley cup.


whats with the young kids these days not showing respect and just tapping gloves after a goal? act like you scored a goal before.






its the same thing as when kovalchuk was cheering before he put the puck in the empty net....everyone here was mad about it then but its ok when canadians are going crazy after a goal?[/QUOTE]


Except for the MAJOR difference that they are celebrating AFTER a goal. It was considered hotdogging by Kovalchuk because he did it BEFORE he put the puck in an empty net. Read your own post, you'll figure out the difference.

 

[Thepainter]

This is almost as big a problem as kids on the internet spelling worlds with 'z' instead of 's' in words like "becuz".

Seriously, show some respect for those of us with. at minimum, a high school diploma.

 

[barnabyrules]

Look at guys like bobby orr who 99.9% of the time didnt even raise his hand after a goal. pure class

Pure boring.

OP wants every player to act like they just filed their tax returns after scoring.

 

[newellky]

Pure boring.

he also enjoys watching the joe sakic post game interview

 

[NativeHockey77*]

Celebrating like you won the Stanley Cup for scoring a goal against a team you know you'll beat by blow out is low class


These guys are not children, they are men regardless of them being 18 or 19. When I was 18 and 19 I was expected to act with maturity and professionalism...so should they

whats wrng with having a personality, being a little bit cocky? these kids aren't robots showing emtion is a good thing

Why are they putting their fingers in their ears all the way up to their knuckles?
