Oh well..

Freaking three 1 points loses, and a loss to Swiss in the last minute..

This is unluckiest **** ever..
 
A game with more pp than pk time, I can't believe what I just saw. All in all a nerve wracking game but fun game, this years WC really has been up and down, hope we can beat those Kazakhs in the last game if we can make the QF or not, dont won't to see them stay up at the expense of Latvia or Norway still a longshot though, they at least produces their own players.
 
I just feel so bad for Elvis, such a talented goalkeeper that has such **** defence in front of him, he deserves better.
 
Latvia still has Kazakhstan and Norway to play.
They started with their toughest matches and they can still end at 9 points and take a QF spot.
All hope is not over (though it's probably feels like it to most Latvians after so many tight losses).
The Kazakh match is key to avoid relegation and get the QF opportunity.
 
Every time Denmark is in this situation I always think about the Japan match from 2004.

We has to WIN to avoid relegation playoffs (Japan has better goal differentials which counted at the time when you also still had draws) and it is 3-3 late in the 3rd period when a Japanese player makes the most insane own goal I have ever seen (since it actually looks like he thinks for a split second he is shooting at the Danish goal instead of his own) and then they actually also hit the post in the last seconds (like Latvia this game) and Denmark wins it 4-3 and stayed up.

We have had some hockey gods with us on this journey in the elite division since 2003.
