5-2 Latvia. Go Latvia!

 

[Vikke]

Latvia must win this, and the game against Finland!

 

[Kronblom]

Oskars Bartulis from Moncton Wildcats has been added to the latvian roster, yet another player born 1987!

 

[Riddarn]

Go Latvia! Down with lumberjack hockey!

Great! Bartulis is a very promising young player.

 

[RorschachWJK]

Anybody in Europe watching this? How has Latvia been? I see they are dominating in shots anyways. TSN is not showing the game here in Canada...

[Streaker-man]

Terrible hockey. I can´t believe these teams have made it this far. Well it was just the first period. Maybe we´ll see some better action in the 2nd and 3rd.

 

[Vikke]

I wonder what happened to Gunko? I just saw the other guys knee hitting him in the back or side somewhere?

 

[wassup77]

He must've broke his back or something like that.

 

[RorschachWJK]

He must've broke his back or something like that.

What?!

 

[wassup77]

What?!

I repeat...He must have broke his back in some kind. Because he couldn't move.

Damn... Was it an accidental play or a nasty one?

it was his teammate who came with the knee into his back...hopefully he will be able to play hockey again.

I'm pretty sure he didn't move because he felt that something could be wrong with his back, though. Also, I guess the medics told him to lay still, too.

Yes! Another win for Latvia

You are aware of that this means that Finland has to beat Latvia to stay in the tournament right? unless Sweden gives them a free win
