... Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 I would say so..... I don't know how they've managed to hang in this long. N.O.L.A.N. G.I.R.G.E.N.S.O.N.S. ...my homer comment for the month. Quote
Brawndo Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 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. Is it time to remove the interim tag? Quote
plenzmd1 Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 I am only getting the NHL network feed as I'm in the car. Guy on the radio says Latvians are exhausted, and I Canada will pull away pretty easy and third period. Guess he does not know teddies teams Quote
Norcal Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Lets Go Latvia!! They might give the USA a run for their money if they win though!! Quote
nfreeman Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 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! Quote
Derrico Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Damn yanks.... It'd be nice if Crosby did something this tourney Quote
Eleven Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Posted February 19, 2014 I think the upset would be of similar proportion to, or lesser than, USA / USSR. Latvia does have many KHL players, and that league is definitely better than the NCAA was in 1980. Quote
respk Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 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. Exactly what I said as I was watching that PP. Bigger. And the anguish in Canada will be enormous. Go Latvia go! Quote
... Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Latvia with the incredibly patient, highly defensive game; Canada is confounded. NO GOAL! Quote
dEnnis the Menace Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 (edited) Will they award the PS?! EDIT: Nope! And still NO GOAL!!! Edited February 19, 2014 by dEnnis the Menace Quote
Johnny DangerFace Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 What happened? I'm at work and can only score watch Quote
carpandean Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 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? Less probable, perhaps, but without the nationalistic impact. Last I checked, there isn't a war (cold or otherwise) between Latvia and Canada. Quote
... Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 What happened? I'm at work and can only score watch Latvia prevented a goal by a hand save, Getzlaf forgot this isn't a NHL game. Quote
Norcal Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Refs are doing their best to help Canada Girgs winning faceoffs Quote
... Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Damn, are we looking at Miller's replacement? Who is that guy? Quote
sabre snipe Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 This game is absolutely nuts Quote
Derrico Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Scorrrrrrrrrrrrressssss!!!!!!!!! Quote
Norcal Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Only took 54 shots and an exhausted goalie Quote
