yeah all that excitement and skill has done a lot for the Oilers

If the kid shows no heart, people say he doesn't care.
So now we're comparing the World Junior tournament to Game 3 of the NHL regular season?

Nail didn't only get the first star of the game, he also won the Conn Smythe trophy. No wonder he was acting like a tool.

Classless d-bag.
Sure it was excessive for the situation, and I'm sure someone took note and he'll be made to pay at a later date, but lets not get carried away with the classless stuff.

Never gonna complain about emotion and personality being added to the league, even if I don't agree with it. It just makes for future exciting story lines which is fun

"Hey Yakupov! You just scored the tying goal in game 3 of the regular season! Where are you going to go? "

"I'm going to West Edmonton Mall!"

That doesn't hold a candle to Theo's famous celebration. Though, Theo's was in a little bit bigger game.

I have watched a lot of WJHC games and cant remember a celebration like that at all.

Even when teams scored OT winners for medals.

Hated that Theo did it. Hated it when this goof did it. This isn't soccer.

Wasn't he the jackass that shot the puck in the net after the whistle tonight too? Celebration was a little overboard for game 3 of the season. Keeps pulling stunts like this and it's only a matter of time before someone is going to take offence to it and just clock him.

Maybe one day the Flames will have a core of young talented players and our players will celebrate like that. What depresses me is how dead the Saddledome is compared to the fans in Edmonton. The place is a funeral compared to Rexall.

I'm not sure. I like Iginla's non-flashy celebration.

Scores 50? Looks for his teammates. Scores 50 a second time? Skates towards his team. Scores 1000? Yup. Scores 500? Yup.

I forget who said it, but I think an NFL coach had said that the celebration that hurts the most were the ones where you put the ball down and walked to your bench. You've been there so many times that there's no reason to celebrate. I'm inclined to agree.

Whatever. Few agree with this dribble.

Listen - let me give you some advice. Knowledgeable and veteran Flames fans are guarded in their hate for the Oil these days and are taking cover as we can see the tide is about to turn on the battle of alberta.

Kid scores a goal on home ice with under 5 seconds left after how many chances tonight. A bit excessive sure, understandable absolutly.

I get it we are Flames fans but if your a realist you should be envious of the future the Oilers have ahead of them in comparison to the are we gonna rebuild are we not game Calgarys been playing the last few seasons.

I'm a Flames die hard but I recognize a talented young team in transition when I see one, frankly the "they're building something special" joke is getting old. Because if you compare the the 2-3 year outlook between the 2 teams one of them has a direction and its not the one we are cheer for.

It's two extremes. Neither are great but Oiler fans showing a huge dumb side tonight. I'll take the fans that don't throw garbage on the ice.

Well Iginla's been there done that. He scores 50 he acts like it's no big deal because that's who he is. Love all the jealous haters here who won't ever see the ice in the NHL knocking on a kid that was happy to score a game tying goal. I hate the Oilers just like everyone else but the celebration isn't a big deal.
