Just a quick heads up for those with access, but Latvia's game is currently on MSNBC right now. Working from home today so I'm hoping to catch a glimpse or two of Freibergs on the ice.
BG '10

Attended more games than any responsible student should have.

meh. no TOI for Ralfs.
but looks like they dressed all eight D-men (with 12 forwards), so maybe next time.
oh well, hope he's having a fine time and sucking up all sorts of mad hockey knowledge from Ozolinsh, Bartulis, and Ted Nolan...

"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Ssssshhhhhhh. Don't say that too loud. He still has two more years with us.... :mrgreen:

I only saw the last two minutes of the third, when Latvia was on the powerplay. Noticed he was paired with Ozlinsh. Somehow, I bet that almost means more to him than the assist.
