The Latvian national team is among the 6 or 7 nations that have managed to stay in the Elite Division of the World Championship for at least 15 years in a row now.

Latvia along with Canada are probably the only 2 countries in the world where hockey is by far the most popular sport. Furthermore, the viewing figures are sky high and hockey is on the rise over here thanks to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinamo_Riga.

Our previous coach was fired after the national team finished 13th last year.

And now you’re telling that our job would be to stay in the Elite Division? Are you fucking nuts? We would rip Keenan’s head off and shit down his neck if he wouldn’t manage to do that.

Come to Latvia and you will see some offensive records on your fucking face, you unprofessional sensationalist twat.
