Some people have their priorities wrong... no harm being done by Yak and Subban.

How about a moonwalk in front of the opposing bench?

Forget classless post-goal celebrations... let's talk about classless behaviour in the actual game.

Observe the Oilers toying with the Sharks by mimicking the "Flying V" from the Might Ducks Disney movie to rush the puck up ice... hell, that's probably Yaks leading the charge. Talk about classless!

As I am only just learning to skate I'm curious, can one moonwalk on the ice?

He retired and un-retired 3 times during that moonwalk.

I don't see what is disrespectful about it aside from a so-called code of honor which gets invented on-the-fly at Don Cherry's convenience.
I only chose Gretz because he was an Oiler, but go ahead pick any other great from the past, Mike Bossy, Stevie Y, Gordie Howe, whoever you want, I never saw them doing bullshit like this. Its got nothing to do with Don Cherry either, I think he's fulla shit and irrelevant. I dunno about you but I never had a coach in ANY sport I played growing up who would tolerate a display like that Yakupov celebration.

But whatever, you've made your mind up that this kind of behavior is somehow a positive for the league, just don't come back whining when it snowballs into something much more like the NFL. Personally I prefer a league where good sportsmanship still exists, I always found that part of the appeal of hockey...its a brutally physical sport, you hit and hack and fight and trash talk and you downright hate some of your opponents but you can still have sportsmanship.

You can celebrate like Yak did and still have good sportsmanship. I don't understand how they have to be tied at the hip. You can also do the tame quiet celebration and be a total prick.
