WC: Apr 30 GDT - Latvia vs. Canada

[time]

A stat that really surprised me from the CAN-LAT game was that in the faceoffs won category, nobody from either team had won more than 50% of their draws.
Very equally played in the faceoff circles.

Faceoff leaders:

CANADA:
Kris Draper, 18 FO's (9-9, 50.00%)
Brendan Morrison, 11 FO's (5-6, 45.45%)
Joe Thornton, 20 FO's (9-11, 45.00%)

LATVIJA:
Aleksandrs Semjonovs, 22 FO's (11-11, 50.00%)
Janis Sprukts, 17 FO's (8-9, 47.06%)
Herberts Vasiljevs, 5 FO's (2-3, 40.00%)

I saw that too. Um, how is that possible? If one player has below 50%, then someone else must be above.

Because the same players don't take faceoffs against each other on every single shift.


Did Scott Walker play? If yes, how did he play?

Walker played...he looked "ok".

Well, Morrison didn't get the Hat Trick and 4 Assists, but at least he got a sweet PP goal..
