Taylor Portner: How Hard is Too Hard?

[pondpucker13]

After some epic celly's last night it got me thinking...how hard is too hard? All in good fun of course

I have no idea what you are talking about but this is actually a good topic whether you meant it to be or not. Personally i love when i see kids celebrate with passion. Just don't over do it. If you are beating a team 5-0 and you score the sixth goal, tone it down a notch. The only time IMO you can celebrate hard when you are up by 5 is if you get a hat trick.

There is no such thing as too hard of a celly. Always room for improvements.

People fail to realize that when USA won gold in 1980 they would have benches clearing full-team cellys. Also, serious running man cellys.

We will see what kind of celly Taylor has if he wins and Oscar for New Moon. He was cool in that movie. Go Taylor Portner!!!

Part of why i love high school hockey is that kids are allowed to celly as hard as they want. You flagged if you celly too hard in high school and even college football.

haha love this topic what exactly did he do?

Well to start the game, he (excuse me) "cellied" to center ice on a non-goal after a scrum in the crease. Then followed up by big "cellies" after e ach of his three goals. None were spontaneous.

Cal should be the one getting the cheers. He's the one flying up and down the ice and making plays so TP can tap them in from the doorstep behind the out of position defensemen.

The kid is a tool, and a cry baby

Think Charlie Conway in D3 when he's trying to impress the girl...

I say that celly's make the game, it boosts team moral watching one of there players celly, and puts the other team in a worse mood, creating a better atmosphere for an intense hockey game

They have no place in the game and the coach should be benching any fool who does this stuff. Score the goal and act like you've done it before and skate right back to center ice to take the draw.

Not all of them. I dream of watching a kid get clotheslined as he skates in front of the opponents bench. BAM!

[BigWorm]

If Brett Favre can celly hard, so can a high school hockey player, its called PASSION, although I only think big cellys should occur in meaningful games, including the following: a close game, a rivalry game, section final, and state.

[Ufeelshame]

Be classy and act like you have done it before. Fans love when their teams win more than they will ever love a celebration by one player. The ONLY time you are allowed to celebrate is if you team mates are right next to you. I especially love the kids that celebrate the late meaningless goal in a loss. Yeah congratulations, you got the goal but you LOST! When coached well hockey is the ultimate team sport. Where is the room for individual celebration?

porky cellys like a champ. whether its a game winner in OT or the 2nd assist on an empty netter, the kid just knows how to party out there on the ice
