- Arturs Silovs is an UNLIKELY HERO, but was the HERO Latvia needed as he put this team on his back and was a main factor in Latvia winning the Bronze medal. Arturs was born in Ventspils, a small city located in Latvia, he was drafted in the 6th round 156th overall by the Vancouver Canucks back in 2019. If I was a Canucks fan I would be insanely happy right now considering the performance he has just given us.

NEW SILOVS VIDEO 👀: czcams.com/video/p4x4xK_1Osc/video.htmlsi=nDkD1EuTHNdZh4UT
oh my god he classified us as northern european. boys... we made it.
Fucking finally
Hahhaha
About goddamn time! Another victory for us 🎉🎉🎉
According to the UN, all tree Baltic states are located in the same section with Scandinavian countries, UK, Ireland and other countries. Although such a devision exists since 2002 many have found out about it at the beginning of 2017. According to the UN Latvia is part of Northern Europe. Glad at last somebody did his homework. 🎉😂😂
Promoted ☝️
the running joke here is that he's now the minister of defence
В смсл,?
@@Riss-ho5yz ну типо министр обороны, так как он вратарь и самый ценный игрок по совместительству
April 2024 ... I am a Canucks fan. And Silovs helped us win a Stanley Cup playoff game. So yes I am insanely happy!
Let's see how far he can lead this team. Might be a video coming soon!
@@GusNHL Silovs!!! Shutout to win us a series. Latvia should be proud
You're welcome 😉😁
Here after Arturs Silovs just went band for band with Juuse Saros, a Vezina calibre goaltender, in a six game playoff series. Silovs won.
New video on Silovs soon? 👀
@@GusNHL Fax
Had a chance (as a finn) to see that game on site and whole crowd in Nokia Arena, Tampere, Finland was to Latvia. Best was soooo loud latvian fans who took the arena on their hands; beautiful story !!! Congrats to Latvia !!!!
Im latvian 🇱🇻😁🫡
Outstanding performance by Latvia and well deserved MVP award going to Silovs!
Now he is the savior Vancouver needs!
Let’s go Silov (the real) Latvian Minister of defence ❤️🇱🇻
He's so good he protected Latvia from Russian invasion.
@@caspianfolkesson6611 this is best one i’ve heard
As a canuck fan, can't wait to see Silovs in the NHL. Got to see him carry Vancouver in a preseason young guys game.
He has played, not full time of course but he's started in games
fast forward, he got a shut out and Canucks move to Round 2
@@lonewolf604he’s the star😊
Or the playoffs
not sure if you know, but the aircraft which was carrying our hockey team back home, before landing at RIX, made a low circle above The Freedom Monument and the aircraft itself had a livery of the Latvian flag.
anyway, this year's bronze made our people so united that various society integrity programs (worth multiple millons) run by "whatever" ministry is nothing compared to what one hockey team has achieved.
it's a pity that this hockey celebration has ended and won't be seen again in Riga in the nearest years. Nevertheless, the preparations for next year's championship in Ostrava and Prague have been started and we will be sure to make our boys to feel like they are playing at our home arena. ❤
After the game the captain Daugavins shouted ''Where is the beer?''
also they sprayed Levits with beer
Levits is the current president of Latvia for anyone wondering
Was kinda funny seeing the nerdy grandpa looking president in the locker room with a bunch of rowdy hockey players lol
@@SpiritDragoness not anymore
@@SpiritDragoness now we got pidaras as president
Monday was, indeed, a national holiday
As someone who attended the celebration at The Monument of Freedom i must say the energy was insane, like haven't seen anything like it
In this tournament Silovs was nicknamed "Mūris" (Brick wall) because of how impenetrable he was. There was even a shot during one of the last games where a fan is holding a sign with the word Silovs and a painting of a brick wall next to it. He was truly the best player this tournament saw.
"The Wall" was Arturs's Irbe's nickname, Arturs Silovs's nickname is "Minister of Defence".
I actually got to go to the freedom monument & celebrate with the other 30k(!!!) people who showed up! The energy was amazing, despite how crazy crowded it was -- i even got to see the trophy from the back for a split second! Now, we've got to go for gold, and make next year's celebration twice as big as monday!
in Latvia the oficial holiday felt like a hockey partey
I was stunned when I heard he deflected 40 of 41 attempted goals by Sweden, and 280 total over the championship, with the next one being at 209. No wonder he's being called the brick wall!
he heee... yeee!! Boiiii did that! I still can't believe that happened. Cried myself to sleep that night. 🤣🤣 Watching hockey since 1996. 💪
AMAZING!
Been waiting for this moment since 1997
I was there too, small drop in the sea of supporters welcoming and celebrating our hockey heroes that achieved bronze victory!
we are small but so proud of our boys❤❤❤
Long live Artūrs Šilovs.
He was getting married at the age of 18!
@@andrejsvikis5830 Ok? That's cool I guess. I hope his marriage goes well. :) Btw Vīķis is a really cool sounding name.
@@caspianfolkesson6611 Thanks, Vīķis is my surname
@@andrejsvikis5830 And Folkesson is my surname. In Latvia it's Folkessons.
Was incredible to celebrate in the city center
He is the next Arturs Irbe (Artūrs Irbe), a.k.a. The Wall.
Just to refresh history, he played in San Jose Sharks, Dallas Stars, as well in Vancouver Canucks, and Carolina Hurricanes at NHL. Our news already made the comparison with the legend, because they both have first name the same, both are goalies/goaltenders.
Arturs Irbe currently is the goaltender coach, he coached at NHL and coached in this championship our goaltenders.
I read about Irbe, Silovs 100% has the potential to be a great goaltender
Next ? He is better look at this he is the best player in all turnument man :) the best do you understand ? Irbe never got some awards like Silov got
he is better then Irbe cuz Irbe never got award THE BETS PLAYER :)
I love seeing hockey grow, this is incredible.
Latvia’s flag is looks exactly like a USCG Good Conduct Medal
1:30 I like how for Latvia, Ventspils is actually not that small :D but yeah internationally it is tiny, but so are all the other cities in Latvia, except the capital city.
Even for Latvia Ventspils is small, just well known port city...
@@erlensmitrofanovs2947I guess it is debatable, based on population it is the 6th largest city in LV, but comparatively not that far off from 4th and 5th. Thought there are only 10 cities in LV, and it is on the bottom half, so can say that it is small.
it shows how good he is he was the literal best player in the world that means he was the best hockey player this year
they made great goalies cos the team always got outshots
