[@stephennichol3620]

One time Matthews had a goal taken away by some goalie interference call and a min later went and scored again and pointed to the net to signal a good goal. That was cool

[@Hockeyhobo89]

Stephen ling oh, people remember

[@Parker_P]

Eichel with the “call to Toronto” after the same thing during the ASG was cool too

[@newschooler720]

Kaner did the same thing lol

[@kevindurant3110]

Yep WHERE IS IT beware of the lawsuits

[@autumntaylor-andrews4201]

REVENGE

[@KamikoInu]

I mean, Kane’s celly when he threw off his gloves after his goal to win the cup against the Flyers is just legendary.

[@sparrow-we7ip]

And people don’t realize it was Kaner and Sharpie who saw the goal. Everyone says it was only Kaner who saw it go in.

[@lightlybatteredjustcrispy]

almost as legendary as him robbing an innocent cab driver

[@tyrous1743]

Auston Matthews looks like a waiter at a fancy restaurant. "Tonight our special comes with a complimentary hat trick."

[@rahulnagi90]

He needs to start serving up more hat tricks if that's going to be his day job!

[@matthewschwartz2225]

[@moose1650]

Answer: every single Patty Kane celly

[@jakelehtinen3806]

Exactly

[@sparrow-we7ip]

Just add “Playoffs” to it and you’ll be good to go.

[@hovikmikaelian8335]

lol

[@filop4367]

Yup. He’s got flair and the play to back it up. My favourite player and still funnest guy to watch

[@michellebarnes7046]

Yea

[@ztechtv528]

The best celly was Kane and Panarin’s no celly against Detroit where they just stared at each other and had no clue what to do

[@sparrow-we7ip]

Then Kane punches Panarin and they started to celebrate

[@grvzivnv8712]

Patrick Kane going down on one knee or PK Subban with the Arrow are the best cellys in hockey

[@53rdand3rdShows]

Matthews "Good goal" celly where he pointed to the net after having a goal called back earlier in the game was a beauty.

[@Pariah_Larry]

Kaner and Mathews going back and forth was one of my favorites. All time favorite is definitely the Patrick Kane hat trick series clinching “heart breaker” celly.

[@gavvalorant]

Man do I miss watching the NHL

[@nasirahmad4661]

i thought i was the only one who stopped watching, glad to see someone on the same sad boat .😦

[@jamesnialG]

​@@bartholomewesperanza3442 and he'll sign with a division rival like Calgary and they'll end up beating the Oilers in the playoffs. Just like Radulov did to Nashville with Dallas last season.

[@zachweinberg3265]

2:57 “And he was the only guy in the world who knew that puck went in” Facts

[@Kate-qr5pj]

Patty Kane heartbreaker one will always be classic

[@kilpatrickja]

Kane's goal in game 6 of the 2015 Stanley Cup Final, putting the Hawks up 2-0 in the final minutes. When he scored and slid on one knee pointing at Brad Richards, and Brandon Saad for the assists!

[@ethansucksatcuphead]

“guys aren’t doing flashy celebrations in boston” * cough* brad marchand *cough *

[@VikingFrenzy]

He doesn’t really celly

[@madams2955]

*cough* Jake DeBrusk *cough*

[@SR-mz8nn]

Brad did the McGregor like once. Debrusk’s isn’t even super wild compared to Panarin and others.

[@VikingFrenzy]

Marchand usually just points his finger to whoever assisted him and I feel like DeBrusk only does his “flashy” celly when playing at home.

[@z2sheisty]

lol

[@nickholton4235]

Kane’s cellys are always great, in terms of great moments the heartbreaker cells against the kings is my favorite, but the back and forth with matthews was awesome.

[@levimckay6475]

Patrick Kane’s wrap around goal in his hatrick vs the Canucks in game 6 in 2009. Cleanest celly I’ve ever seen

[@OTandback]

Patrick Kane’s Showtime >

[@mcdaviddeservesbetter8]

1:36 I’m glad to know that Nuge was as confused as I was. lol

[@rickyrougs]

Not a chicago fan but the showtime goal and celly is pretty dope

[@lindsey6970]

“and he was the only guy in the world that knew that puck went in.” THAT KILLED ME IM STILL LAUGHING

[@jackwalsh3199]

Besides sharp

[@blackspider2274]

Fleury against the Oilers years back. When he scored against Fuhr. Love that one.

[@likeag1000]

Kane's celly with Panarin where they just stared at each other for a couple seconds was really good too

[@TW-im8hs]

Duchene loves talking about himself eh 😂

[@sparrow-we7ip]

Funny how every team he’s been on has been has had a huge let down

[@Zaghzackio]

Only one who mentioned his own celly and he did it twice

[@marie2274]

Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if he still played for the Avs. Than I smile because he left the Avs to play playoff hockey. I wonder how that is going.. What a loser .

[@blap5630]

When Marner scored that sick goal against the shark he did a cool little reverse spin while standing up that looked kinda clean

[@eddixon2015]

2:56 I've seen the Patty Kane goal a few times, and everyone says Kane was the only one who knew, but if you watch the replay, Patrick Sharp saw it go in as well.

[@owenmartinez8406]

patty sharp said himself that he wasn’t sure that the puck went in until the refs found it in the back of the net

[@eddixon2015]

@@owenmartinez8406 Well, I didn't know that, but he started celebrating almost immediately afterwards while everyone else on the Blackhawks just kinda moved around confused.

[@scottbecker4367]

@@owenmartinez8406 he saw it go in, but he second guessed himself after there was no signal.

[@boland73]

I’m surprised nobody said Kuzy’s bird celly! I thought that one was pretty unique

[@JuiceJive]

That I saw live: Antoine Roussel's game-tying hat trick against Tampa in Dallas, 2017. On TV, probably Roussel's penalty shot in Chicago in 2013. His angry intensity and the spark of a pesky, gritty, bruiser getting clutch goals elevated his celebrations.

[@ToKeepMeFromSinking]

I was thinking of Rous' penalty shot in Chicago as well. That was awesome. Also, Benn snapping his stick over his knee was pretty good.

[@Hynzy57]

Lol of course Duchene’s favorite is himself. Gave two separate examples of himself. What a joke

[@tylerwestman5668]

[@mnikss03]

John Scott’s 1st ASG goal is one of my faves haha

[@jackfinn8130]

Idk why I found this so funny but at the end seeing Atkinson explain his celly’s and he’s smiling then at the end goes yea that was pretty cool to be apart of with a straight face after smiling made me laugh

[@jeffreydean5112]

The Giroux celebration when he slides the sword into the sheath or when he scored the winner in OT in the outdoor game against pens

[@leafs9106]

My favourite cellies are Matthews’ good goal call & Silencing the crowd

[@kellenbrennan6992]

Best celly by far is Kane’s OT winner to send CHI to the SCF against the kings and I’m a kings fan. Still gives me nightmares but it’s the best.

[@btgkg9639]

Jazz Hands is pretty damn good though.

[@zachawks7034]

The one Alex Debrincat talked about I went to that game and it was amazing

[@gru_master1749]

Torey krug didnt even mention his own ot winner this season against the wild. Amazing celly

[@Tek3333]

Rasmus Dahlin has insanely good English for a really young Swedish kid

[@seandavila835]

Most Swedes, especially younger ones, speak fluent English. That goes for all of Scandinavia.

[@Sakis111]

Well in Europe, specially Scandinavia and Baltics, people speak very good english, because we learn it in school

[@mikaelruusuvuori3478]

Yeah, in the nordic countryes we start learning english at 8 years old.

[@vrestxxio1945]

Because english is a very close relative to swedish. Finnish fpr example is nothing like english and that's why swedes normally speak better english

[@pikkisful]

Tiger Williams’ ”riding the stick” is the best celly ever

[@SgtBigCactus]

Bobby Orr flying through the air after scoring the Stanley cup goal has to be the best celly in history

[@JZJ7777]

I agree. Can’t say I’ve seen it but I have seen the statue in front of TD Garden commemorating the goal he did that celly for.

[@timmisdzivy3888]

Crosby’s 2010 Olympic gold medal game ot winner

[@begineizer]

I was expecting that one!

[@cameronleith3299]

I was there

this!

[@zachweinberg3265]

0:34 Duchene’s celly just looked so clean and so genuine

[@MrTheRisingtide]

3:48 ... they forgot to edit in Brad Marchand doing the Conor McGregor ape arm swing... I call bull hockey on Boston being a humble team

[@fredo780]

Billionaire Strut*

[@drsch]

Maybe they don't celly as much because they're too busy slew footing and licking people...

[@3soroky038]

Mathew Barzal I remember that especially because I’m an Islanders fan that was a crazy game

[@gtfobuddy21]

I love ovechkins attitude hes the bees knees in his eyes

[@Hunter-os5yx]

Aaron Asham putting beagle to sleep. That celly was clean as hell

[@mercutiochaux1041]

The Patrick Kane phone booth knee slide thingy, Kovalev with the moonwalk, and Milan Hejduk "swimming" across the ice. Honorable mention goes to Niklas Hjalmarsson's non-celly celly when he scored the game-tying goal and then instead of celebrating, he just angrily threw his stick into the glass like it was a javelin.

[@officialands]

Sidney Crosby Golden Goal during 2010 olympic in vancouver. Overtime goal vs USA.... What a magic moment

[@adwmfilms]

My favorite was when Mike Green scored the OT winner against the Rangers in the playoffs, I was at that game and the energy was INSANE

[@slimjimcognito]

the group hand shake is amazing LOL

[@peytonchasten7098]

I think that patrick kane has the best celebrations because he has so many and you can make cool edits out of those

[@kmchockey]

I saw that game 2 in Boston at 0:37 live at TD garden

[@JeremyCuddles]

Burrows arrow to the sky celly is a great one, cause of the meaning behind it.

[@jeanniejefferies8205]

4:25 is just like the Sharks game 7 against Vegas

[@Vaxilion]

Alec Martinez cup winner in 2014. The pure emotion when he throws his gloves off and almost falls on his face.

[@AJEDDY97]

My favorite that I watched was Alec Martinez scoring the overtime winner for the Kings in the Cup Final against the Rangers, even though I'm an Oilers fan now, and I've always thought Hank deserves a cup.

[@Pb-ij4ip]

I played baseball growing up, and in baseball, I detest excessive celebrations, although I will grant a “pass” for walk-off wins (particularly in extra innings and even more so in postseason). Hockey is a different beast, however. I still remember my first goal (playing on rollerblades nonetheless) and it was such a thrill! I love the passion of this sport!

[@filop4367]

I like the handshake idea. Subtle but funny 😁
