estogoalie Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Anyone watching? Congrats to Latvia for beating Canada 2-0 for the first time ever https://www.iihf.com/en/events/2021/wm/news/25629/latvia_stuns_canada True, Canada doesn't have their A-Team there, and it's early on in the tournament where teams are still "finding their legs", but anyway, well done Latvia.

They've scored only 2 goals in three games; only managing 1 goal against Latvia and Germany combined is pretty pathetic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
estogoalie Posted May 26, 2021 Author Share Posted May 26, 2021 Canada finally played with some authority in their win against Norway. Or Norway just played like sht. Anyway, important game as they are each fighting for the second-to-last spot in their group. No relegation this year? So the bottom 4 teams just go home after the preliminary round?

Hey, IIHF has nice things to say about yo cuz ... altho Canada could fail to make the semis if the Latvia-Germany game today goes to OT. That game is gonna determine the last 2 semi spots, so should be a good one. I'd say Germany has been playing well and probably favored, but Latvia is at home (paper cut-out fan advantage?) and will be fighting hard to stay in. Goaltending has been pretty good on both ends, so it could be close and OT could be possible...let's see! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canada barely squeaked into the semis, now they're in the half-finals. Gotta be proud of your cuz getting the GWG. Since I told you to tell him to get it in gear, I felt like I had a hand in this, LOL. Great give-and-go between him and #70, sweet moves by both. Shocker that Russia is going home with no medal. I had them pegged to be in the finals. Finland is still my favorite, but who knows. I also thought Switzerland would beat Germany today, but that didn't pan out. Let's see. Since I'm part American, I'm going to have to be rooting against your cuz in the next game USA/CAN Saturday, so don't be sending him any inspirational messages from me this time, LOL Â Edited June 3, 2021 by estogoalie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is unreal. @estogoalie Your cuz got the GWG again against USA  He's turning into a real Magiapane-in-the-ass for every team he plays against  The US played much better than I expected tho. They played very good as a team, they just lacked a sharp-shooter, and altho I can't complain too much about Cal Petersen, I don't really like him and don't think goaltending was one of USA's strong points. Canada has got strong and solid goaltending from Kuemper, and Magiapane is a scoring machine, so that combo seems to be working well for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
