I think this debate boils down to one question. In your mind if you can see the Americans doing this and think "good for them", then you are free to have no problem with the celebration. If you're like me and the thought of Americans doing that makes your blood boil just a little, then I think it would be hypocritical to say our celebration was a positive thing.
I'd have no problem with the USA women doing the same in similar circumstances. The rink was empty. Too bad a few media stuck around and decided to create a stink.
