If you watched the game you would know the score was a poor reflection of how close the game was. Just like the against the US, Canada dominated that entire game.Yup, now you guys have a legit excuse why you barely won against Latvia - a Latvian 3rd/4th liner used illegal substances.

I was wondering how soon this joke would pop up. Well played.
At any rate, his name definitely rings a bell.

Methylhexaneamine – What is it and what does it do?
Methylhexaneamine is a stimulant that has moved up the banned list in the WADA. It is used mainly as a Fat Metaboliser/ Fat Burner. It was first created to be used as a Nasal Decongestant, but its fat Burning potential was discovered and soon found its way into many brand name supplements.
Methylhexaneamine has many different variants; Methylhexaneamine; Methylhexanamine; DMAA (dimethylamylamine); Geranamine; Forthane; Forthan; Floradrene; 2-hexanamine, 4-methyl-; 2-hexanamine, 4-methyl- (9CI); 4-methyl-2-hexanamine; 1,3-dimethylamylamine; 4-Methylhexan-2-amine; 1,3-dimethylpentylamine; 2-amino-4-methylhexane; Pentylamine, 1, 3-dimethyl. These different names and variants must be looked for if you are at risk of being tested for your sport as they will all get you a ban. The frightening thing is, is that supplement companies don’t always name everything in the box. Sometimes they will name just what they need to name to sell the product. This is when they become dangerous. Stimulants can be added through cross-contamination in the manufacturing process. It may be added to the supplement for its affects, but deliberately left off of the ingredient list for a variety of different reasons.
Methylhexanamine is chemically related to amphetamines, however, the effects of it are only slightly higher than having a cup of coffee. It is not a strong, long lasting stimulant. It works with others to create a metabolic effect in the body. Its effects have also been questioned with a number of adverse events and at least 5 deaths associated with products containing Methylhexaneamine – there is no medical link between Methylhexaneamine and the deaths but it is believed that the fact that it was found in the blood stream of the people who died is “an important factorâ€.
Supplements containing Melthylhexaneamine include:
· Jack3d – USPLabs
· OxyELITE pro – USPLabs
· Hemo Rage Black Ultra Concentrate – Nutrex
· Rezolution – LG Science

He said he was instructed by a team doctor to take the food supplements.

This thread isn't for discussing Lance Armstrong, or Carl Lewis, or anyone from years past. It's about one Latvian player who, unfortunately, is reported to have tested positive for a banned substance. Discuss him and, if you wish, the wider implications of testing on Olympic players. However, that is not free reign to throw around potentially libelous statements about other players. If you cannot discuss the topic in a civil manner, you will be removed.
I believe he was specially trained to associate the sound of a goal horn with the food supplement, and can hardly be blamed for the whole situation.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was telling the truth, there really isn't much reason to take anything bad.
I'd assume that he understands he'd be tested, and while athletes sometimes try to get by the system in this particular case I can't see why he would.
Its probably just an honest mistake, hopefully won't turn into anything serious.
Yup, KHL and the European pro leagues are under the jurisdiction of IIHF. He's also banned from the national team, World Champs, etc.
Obviously, it is possible that his club team used a some sort of a supplement that contained the substance, but it wasn't done on purpose. But it's going to be really hard to prove it.
He can be disqualified for up to 2 years (from IIHF competitions).

Does having 1 player that failed a test negate the results of the team?
Like obviously say in Cross Country is someone dopes and wins gold they have their medal stripped, what happens in a team event, can 1 4th liner doping automatically strip the team of its results?
If yes how is this fair to the Swiss? Not saying they'd beat Latvia if this 1 player on Latvia was clean, but if they did strip Latvia of their result, technically that means the Swiss didn't lose to them and thus deserve a QF match against Canada.

This is what happened in 1976:

Pospisil was a much more important player than Pavlovs (he was captain of the team and considered a star in Europe at the time). But based on precedent, it seems like the IOC could force Latvia to retroactively forfeit every game it played with Pavlovs in the lineup.
