Nice penalty, would like to see again

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

This better not go to a shootout.

 

[dwuuuu]

brawl

 

[kassatsu]

Orpik playing that NHL game. Such truculence.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

LAT. VI. AAAAAAAAAAAAA.

 

[LevelNth]

This is an INCREDIBLE performance by this goaltender.

 

[rinse82]

Ok getting nervous now. Latvia gonna steal this.

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Dem Minnesota bois leadin USA to victree

 

[Samyy]

Canada needs to score here on this PP

 

[kassatsu]

I would blame Tabris is Canada loses.

 

[dwuuuu]

This is an INCREDIBLE performance by this goaltender.

very good

 

[calder]

Man, I almost want Latvia to win. lol

that would be so awful... however it would be a lot better than losing to the US in the semifinals... so silver lining I guess.

 

[criesofthepast]

That smile by the Latvian goalie at the end of the period. They've already won.

 

[Drazgul]

CAN - LAT 1 - 1 after two periods, wow.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

PP GOAL LET'S GO

 

[Kifimbo]

More embarassing than the Russian.

 

[MeBecomingI]

Yeah, I'm nervous. This is too close and Canada is gonna try so hard to score that it may end up costing them an odd man rush.

Spoiler

And the game.

Better how?

 

[gutter_trash]

lol Cindy trying to be fancy

 

[Sobriquet]

my tears are turning into eagles

What do the eagles' tears turn into?

 

[RaySpencer]

TIME FOR LOTS OF BEER.


I cant handle how tense this game is sober. Common Canada!

 

[The Internet]

Game needs more Taylor Hall

 

[DopeyFish]

What do the eagles' tears turn into?

Maple syrup

 

[dwuuuu]

If Lativia win against Canada, it will be bigger than miricle on ice

 

[Spl1nter]

Such bad coaching for Canada. Horrible system being playing in the offensive zone. Puck possession is useless if you don't generate real chances. Cycle game behind the net and in corners is fine for gaining possession but completely useless for scoring on international ice. They should be using the points and going more east-west in the offensive zone.

 

[Red_Man]

Shots are 35-11 and Kunitz missed an open net. Not really as bad as the score makes it out to be, the Latvian goalie deserves a lot of credit.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Losing to a team where Bartulis has an "A" would be hysterical.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Gudlevskis better be taking Lindback's job when he gets back to North America.

 

[scissorfight]

it would be a miracle if Latvia pulls this off. Canada is just too talented if it goes past regulation.

an OT loss or SO loss is probably the best Latvia can do.

should have taken the day off work...

 

[John Dunbar]

canada will get a power play goal right at the start of the third and cruise to victory.

 

[nature boy]

Canada is depressing me.

 

[calder]

Idea: the Jets trade Pavelec to Tampa for this Latvian goalie Gudļevskis. This guy literally takes Pavelec's seat on the plane back to North America, and Pavelec wanders Russia as a traveling goalie stopping pucks (kinda) in exchange for room and board.

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

LAT. VI. AAAAAAAAAAAAA.

 

[John Dunbar]

if this game is still tied with less than two minutes to go, canada should pull their goalie to save face.

 

[Kak.efes]

So, what is Latvia known for? A win here could be etched in their history books for generations. I don't want Latvian children celebrating this day one hundred years from now.

imagine all the propaganda videos!

 

[yyzjohn]

Better how?

Yeah that comment makes no sense. Latvia beating Canada would be the biggest upset in hockey history so can't see how it's "better than losing to the U.S."

 

[Spl1nter]

The Canadian team has basically become New Jersey. Cycle the puck and keep possession with shots but never score and no Jagr.

 

[Hunter S.]

Latvia is the hero we need to defeat the arrogant Canadians!

 

[KillerMan91]

canada will get a power play goal right at the start of the third and cruise to victory.

yeah. Still feeling that this is kinda similar game to Slovenia - Sweden which was kinda even before third period.

 

[kassatsu]

Putin to annex Lativa

 

[ShinRPGamer]

I had a bad feeling about this team when we only beat Norway 3-1. Looks like we may very well see an upset.

 

[Red_Man]

Can Babcock be fired mid game?

 

[MetatronM]

Switching over to the CAN-LAT stream for the third period. Also just realized I'm totally coincidentally wearing a very Latvian shade of red today. Maybe it's a sign.


Meanwhile, Zuccarello lands back in NYC tomorrow and will be looked at by Rangers docs. MRI says he has a fractured left hand, might or might not be ready for when play resumes next week.

 

[Dragon]

Better how?

Canada can't lose to its little brother in hockey. Just like it can't lose to Russia. Lose to former Soviet Union countries? A-okay.

 

[Kifimbo]

Oh well, at least they won in Vancouver.

 

[zroid]

Did Tavares come back?

 

[Fei]

One period away. I think Nolan would no longer be interim coach if they somehow pull this off. :lol

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Canadians like myself HATE losing againist the States espically in Hockey. Some of us would rather lose to a weaker team like Latvia than lose to the U.S.
