[Cam Robinson] Arturs Silovs (VAN) leads Latvia to their first ever medal at an IIHF event. He finishes the World Championships with a 7-3-0 record and a .923 save percentage. What a tournament.

Reckon he’s the back up next season.
our future #1
What a great story for Silovs and Latvia.
That should give him a lot of confidence heading into Abby next season, where he should lock down the starting gig.
🎉🎉🎉
If some overexcited team offers a late first draft pick for Silovs do you take it? Say 25-32nd pick
Media gonna start the season with a “Goalie Controversy”
This makes me happy. If he develops into a starter in a couple years that gives us a chance to move demko for other needs
This is a great story and super happy for him, he looked great. But PLEASE let’s chill with the “he’s our goalie of the future, back-up next season”, stuff. They were playing against AHL opponents. Look at team USA and team Canada’s rosters. They had like a handful of real NHLers and mostly tweeners and guys you’ve never heard of. This tournament doesn’t mean he’s ready for the NHL.
Extend him. 6×6

You can never have enough good goalies. Congrats Silovs!!
Fuck yea Silovs! Suck it merka! (Love you Garly)
Now he is the MVP of the tournament
Hot take: if Demko is our guy, we need to flip Silovs for a first plus as unless we move Demko, Silovs will age out before Demko moves on.
