SPOILER GDT: LATVIA v. CANADA

Yep

 

Canada just killed the storyline that every other country wanted.

 

You know, the story about the plucky underdog beating Canada only to have its throat ripped out by the USA. That story.

 

What a save on perry how is this guy not on the nhl

 

Because he's only 21. He's in Syracuse.

That's insane - Latvia's goalie faced nearly 60 shots from some of the creme de la creme of the NHL, and lopsided Time of Possession for Team Canada and only gave up 2 goals. And honestly he faced as many shots as most goalies do in 2 games. The guy played his HEART out and pushed himself to the point of collapse. I had to see him take a loss for that performance.

Latvia hung in there, they were such the underdogs it wasn't funny.

 

After that second goal, Canada got their heads straight and the confidence up and it was over. Latvia put everything they could into it, but against the stacked Canadians? No.

Russia controls half the game but struggles to score goals and loses to Finland (a perennial medal contender), and it proves that Russians are a bunch of lazy, floating individuals who don't know the meaning of team. Ovechkin only had one goal in the tourney, yada yada typical Russians. Canada struggles to score and escapes by an ass hair against Latvia with Crosby being invisible on the scoresheet...anyone want to take a guess what the narrative will be? I can take a guess what it won't be.

Absolutely. Canada should not be happy with this game and should be very afraid of facing a pretty dominant USA team this Olympics. The USA v. Canada game ought to be fun to watch.

Kristers Gudlevskis can't win the big games?
