VHL Cup Finals, GM 5: Riga vs. New York


Recommended Posts

VILLENEUVE WITH THE GAME WINNER? NO WAY!

 

I honestly thought we'd be done in 5! This is much better than I expected Riga to do! Now at worst we lose in 7.

 

... and oddly enough I would be okay with that.... :idk:

 

 

*edit: but go-Riga-go :rig:

What the Fleming

Can you fracking not

It's like these past two seasons Riga finally got to use the positive karma accumulated from losing to Davos all the time.

 

The one who left had returned, bringing with him the fortune he had taken and bestowed upon his brethren in Davos, setting it back within its rightful home in Riga, and all was well in the VHL.

You overestimate the amount of good fortune Riga had before S32ish.

 

You underestimate how much all of the league's fortune turned with the creation of Jarkko Olsen in S33.

 

S34, Riga: Riga in the playoffs, Davos not.

S35, Davos: Davos in the playoffs, Riga not.

S36, Davos: Davos wins the Cup, Riga misses playoffs.

S37, Davos: Davos eliminates Riga, makes a Cup appearance.

S38, Davos: Davos eliminates Riga, wins Cup.

S39, Davos: Davos eliminates Riga, makes a Cup appearance.

S40, Riga: Riga wins the Cup, Davos misses playoffs. 

 

In short, Olsen determined the success/failure of Davos and Riga over a 7 year span - and that good karma is benefitting them this year as well, a lingering presence until a successor is born.
