Nothing noteworthy happened, both teams playing again in full strength

Penalty also on the side, means the end of the USA´s power-play and we will play 4 against 4 for 37 seconds and the a 1:23 shortened power-play Nick Bonino 2 minutes for Hooking, Time: 42:56

Maybe the key moment of the match ? Power play for , Time 41:33, Rihards Bukarts 2 minutes for Hooking

Score after 2nd Period Bronze Medal Match (Nokia Arena - TAMPERE) United States - Latvia : 2-2 (2-2, 0-0, -) 07:49 Roberts BUKARTS (Ri. Bukarts, Dzierkals) 0:1 09:45 Rocco GRIMALDI (Perunovich, Bjork) 1:1 16:08 Janis JAKŠ (Ri. Bukarts) 1:2 19:03 Rocco GRIMALDI (Perunovich, Coronato) 2:2

Meanwhile a successfull proposal on the cube during the intermission resulted in huge applause and smiles in the stands and some players smiling as well on the bench watching it on the cube, well, I guess the girl had no other options than to answer ...YES, in front of all this crowd though

Again excellent USA´s penalty killing. USA back at full strength, still 2:2

Power-play chance for at time 32:59, Mackey penalised 2 minutes for Tripping (another dumb foul, but an ibvious one, however Darzinš neymared a bit too I feel)

Score after 1st Period Bronze Medal Match (Nokia Arena - TAMPERE) United States - Latvia : 2-2 (2-2, -, -) 07:49 Roberts BUKARTS (Ri. Bukarts, Dzierkals) 0:1 09:45 Rocco GRIMALDI (Perunovich, Bjork) 1:1 16:08 Janis JAKŠ (Ri. Bukarts) 1:2 19:03 Rocco GRIMALDI (Perunovich, Coronato) 2:2

yeah, rarely you´ll see USA power-play stats going to 0/2 the shortest man of this tournament Rocco Grimaldi added his 2nd of the day and is aiming for a nice bronze-medal-match hattrick now. score tied 2:2. Time 19:03 Grimaldi 7+7 (14 points already)

2 unlucky moments in 2 seconds for Latvia here... first Jakš received a deflected puck right into his mouth... a couple of teeths and a lot of blood on the ice...and a second later came a Tripping foul from Kristians Rubinš. Time 17:19. second power-play chance for yuesey now

and is leading again !!! 16:08 unusual blackout in the US defence and just like that Latvia leading 2:1, goal scored by Janis Jakš

looking for a bet hint ? you can certainly put some bucks on Šilovs being awarded the best goaltender of the tournament ... maybe even this WCh MVP.. He is having a tourney of his life... Saved Latvia on the PK

and time for the first USA´s PP Ralfs Freibergs with an absolute "darwin-award" Stupid Interference foul in the offensive-zone send his team to 4 against 5 play at 13:34

First successfull penalty-kill by USA in this game. both teams playing at full strength. still 1-1 on the score-board less than 7 minutes to play in the opening frame

Tuch got lucky here, only a 2 minutes (minor) for boarding. However power-play for time 10:27

Dumb fault from Alex Tuch on Čukste... Power-play incoming for Latvia... The officials currently video-reviewing the call... smells like a major penalty here

09:45 we are tied again. USA´s Rocco Grimaldi is again the tournament best scorer with his 13th point (6 goals and 7 Assists)

and it´s 1:0 Latvija... Roberts Bukarts at 07:49 converted the power-play. Explosion in the stands. there literally more Latvians in the arena today than yesterday.

First power-play of the game is for . Carter Mazur send to the penalty box for Tripping (Time 06:02)
