I initially thought that the refs screwed up not calling that hand pass but the actual rule is that it's only a hand pass if directed to a teammate in the ref's opinion. Not automatically if a teammate is next to touch.

Nothing really, I thought the celebration was a bit lame but whatever.
What got me is that when one of your teammates is getting rocked
right beside you then the time for celebrating is over and you go and help him.
The fact that this concept is completely foreign to the Oilers shows the kind of character and attitude that they have.
