GDT: Switzerland - Latvia

[RobRayzor]

I think they need to double team Fiala

Pull goalie.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Why are the Swiss trying so hard? Isn't it better to have Latvia make it through?

 

[SoundAndFury]

"van Poel remains in his goal for now" - dude, the score is tied

 

[Speyer]

Almost rooting for Lativa to make it now...

 

[Finnswiss]

Only 1 minute to play. Go Latvia!

 

[SoundAndFury]

Pull goalie.

Exactly what Gord Miller is thinking.

A regulation win gives them top overall spot for a re-seeding in the semis potentially, only thing I can think of

 

[LKI]

Swiss trying to hurt us these... devils youuuuuu

Because they're professional athletes?

They would finish first overall, so if they'd qualify for the semis they would play the least ranked team in the semis. If.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Latvia has a population about the size of Idaho, would be a huge deal for the little Lats to get to the Quarters.

Because they're professional athletes?

See Sweden in the Olympics though

[Czechboy]

Sorry Slovakia!

Ftr. Another point and Latvia catches the Czechs too!

Congrats Latvia.

 

[Dofs]

OMG FINALLY

 

[jcbio11]

Oh well. We deserve this.

Latvia, make this QF appearance count. Give everybody hell.

 

[RobRayzor]

Congrats Latvia from Slovakia! We gave you a chance and you took it! Go beat USA!

If Latvia wins this game,they pass Czechs and get Sweden

 

[Chainshot]

Latvia gets their point by coming back from behind. Impressive.

 

[maclean]

always pull for the slovaks but gotta feel good for the home crowd on this one

 

[WarriorofTime]

Congrats Latvia from Slovakia! We gave you a chance and you took it! Go beat USA!

if they win in OT, they will get the 3rd spot and play Sweden with USA facing Czechia

 

[martygod12]

GG latvia

 

[Czechboy]

If Latvia wins,they pass Czechs and get Sweden

And we get US.

 

[SwissFan12]

Congrats to Latvia, they deserved this point, your fans are tremendous!

I hope they don't play against Finland if they both should reach the semifinal. I want to see Finland - Switzerland in final game!!!

 

[WarriorofTime]

This is a top 5 all time moment in Latvian hockey history. Right up there with the time they voted Zemgus Girgensons into the All Star game.
