SPOILER GDT: LATVIA v. CANADA


Eleven

Recommended Posts

Take the interim tag off for F's sake. This is supposed to be a 20-1 team in this game. They can lose 6-1 and it will still be an awesome effort given the start.

 

Right on.

 

Sabres-esque powerplay. Just trying not to give up a shorty :lol:

 

Exactly what I said as I was watching that PP.

 

If Latvia some how pulled off an upset, would you guys rank that w/ college boys of the US upsetting the Soviets in the 80' olympics or maybe say a Latvian win is a bigger upset?

 

Bigger.

 

And the anguish in Canada will be enormous.

 

Go Latvia go!

Bigger based on the anguish that would happen in Canada. Canadians consider hockey theirs. To think that Latvia could beat them would be unthinkable to Canadians. The planes carrying the players back might not be allowed to land in Canada.

 

Right on.

Less probable, perhaps, but without the nationalistic impact. Last I checked, there isn't a war (cold or otherwise) between Latvia and Canada.
