Ya, and for a while hockey players were were calling goal "ginos". Both are terrible.
Hated Yakupov's celebration for many of the reasons already mentioned: it's game 3; he tied the game, he didn't win it; it was his second goal, so the whole "first goal ever excitement" excuse proved false; ran away from his teammates to celebrate by himself, etc.
I agree there should be emotion and excitement in hockey, but it can be displayed in a way that doesn't involve showboating.
