Canucks Goalie Arturs Silovs Is Answering The Call In The Playoffs
When the Canucks lost both Thatcher Demko and Casey DeSmith to injury against the Predators, they turned to little known Latvian goaltender Arturs Silovs. He has led them to the Second Round and shown that the moment doesn’t get to him. Perhaps because he faced immense pressure this past summer, when le led Latvia to its first ever medal at the IIHF World Championship, where they brought home a bronze.

Silovs won bronze against Casey DeSmith. Poetic, really.

[@robbb-we7uj]

​@@sportsnetthe music is way too loud in this video, can barely hear the players

[@joycenkenes]

.. I bet casey is a good teammate .

[@rubberduckie5518]

Omg I really feel for Casey, but he will get a nice salary this off season wherever he goes.

[@sleevelessace]

desmith and conor garland played against silovs in that game which is even more poetic

[@dontworryaboutit273]

Man whoever mixed this gotta turn the music down a touch, can barely hear people talking

[@mayykit7855]

Silovs!Let's show everyone how great you are. I believe in you young man. ❤❤

[@MetalCactus0765]

Crazy how this young back-up goalie was painting more of a picture than some of the players, don’t get me wrong , a lot of players on our team played their part but this young man brought levels every game, crazy

[@austrisk5816]

Those who haven't realised - Latvians know how to provide TOP level goalies!

[@BAG-es6qy]

It's now our story too 🇱🇻💯🔥 Latvija ar Tevi!!! ❤

[@robertblake4006]

Artūrs, 6th player from Latvia always stands behind you even in your darkest days. You are not alone.

[@KindaKindaa]

The Canucks are Canada AND Latvia’s team now

[@inktownfishing4505]

He may be considered a rookie, but has playoff experience!

[@hsriga2012]

Way to go, Arturs! This makes all of us proud

[@rhumball]

best player in canucks. great job. best goalie canucks’ ever have ever.

[@skylight57]

make the music louder I can barely hear it

[@SheeshBros.]

Lesgoo Silovs, see u in Edmonton. Driving there !

[@bronzeandsteel3344]

0:52 reppin' the canucks mask during the world juniors. I love this guy.

[@Rezisorss]

This wasn't a juniors but big league

[@robertsumbrasko3591]

its the mens wc

[@einarsa7196]

Is DeSmith junior to you? He was playing in that world "junior" tournament lol

[@sammyboi8574]

Music louder please I can still hear their voice

[@treeyellow4627]

Lol. Yes pls!!😅

[@treeyellow4627]

Loool

[@robbb-we7uj]

Music is wayyyy to loud in this video

[@inlawjosiewhales]

it’s ridiculous lol

[@aqaz120]

Mam what a story for silovs canucks unfortunate injury woes to demko and desmith in comes a somewhat inexperienced Latvian goaltender silovs some how taking the opportunity and driving that pressure and answering it in big moments in the playoffs is so huge. I'm happy for him what a goalie and that is a goalie for the future for the canucks

[@edgarsmihalenko1791]

Artūrs the GOAT

[@calvincharlie703]

And why Is Desmith picked over Silovs if Silovs got Bronze 🥉 over Desmith?

[@Bergyn]

Silovs sadly had a really tough exhibition game performance during preseason which is why they sent him to AHL

[@sortega8163]

Go Silovs !

[@ritapuisane755]

Latvija 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻

[@GregaJuvancic]

Who was doing the sound in this piece??? Music volume is so loud and speech so quiet one can barely understand what they are talking about!!!

[@dotConcept]

That's what I'm thinking haha. Gotta read the lips or something

[@bamslis3]

Arty Party ❤️🇱🇻

[@raptor_il89lv]

Canuks is lucky to gave that jewel:)) when all thought tgey have no goalie left Silovs comes to save a day💪🇱🇻👊

[@Jothulu]

The sound mixing on this is rough. Why is the music so much louder? Makes it very difficult to hear what people are saying, especially when they're not on-screen.

[@Mori_mee]

silovs is a key part to this team

[@gustavs.indrevics]

Latvian laser!!!🇱🇻🥳

[@bettsboo]

Whoever cut this needs to cut down the music 😂🎉❤ … silov deserves better !

[@MapleSyrupPoet]

Canadians love these stories 📖 📕

[@Stixnstonez49]

Who the hell was the Editor?? Music was so loud....

[@Carrollavirus]

Can’t hear over this music.

[@MrInvincible12]

We need him back in 2024 hockey championships we couldn't win bronze medal without him🇱🇻

[@sandijsbekeris9003]

❤❤❤

[@blueg3027]

Just another goalie in the goalie machine called the canucks organization

[@AveragePopcornEnjoyer]

In 3-4 years, I could see this guy land an undisputed number 1 role for a big team. As a Rangers fan, and with Quick being on UFA status next year, I would personally love for him to be traded to the Rangers as a T-2 and eventually replace Shesterkin as number 1

[@janislizbovskis2183]

🇱🇻

[@Dawg476]

3 games. Had a .905 sv% in AHL. Nashville’s offence was like minor leagues compared to the Oilers.

[@chiubakka]

I’m not even a canucks fan but the kid is 23 and should be proud, the jealousy/hate in your comment is crazy lmao

[@fdti6914]

905sv% in the ahl was on a team that was basically gutted from the start of the year. They lost Hoglander, Juulsen, Podkolzin, Amen and a bunch of other players for 2 week stretches. It was Tolopilo and Silovs that kept abbotsford in the playoff hunt ... tolopilo outplayed Silovs. The reality is, the Canucks are a goaltending factory. That's why the Canucks are high on this kid. We're pumping out starters and elite goalies. This series and the Nashville series would be much different if Demko was healthy.

[@VolcanicProtectorMan]

After all star break Nashville offensive numbers and power play percentage was higher than the oilers until they ran into the Canucks in the playoffs.

[@einarsa7196]

And how is your oilers doing now? He stealing games from you guys

[@petersack5074]

4:00 Time. HE is ' thanking '' GOD ; FOR this opportunity, here in North Ameria. ! A l s o ;......' one, only shoots, IN LIFE > > > >> '' AS HIGH AS YOU AIM '''.

[@DaaaaaBears]

This aged like milk

[@markuslofgren5661]

STOP OVERRATING HIM

[@syd-eq4ps]

So, u are Oils fan, correct? Or Preds fan? :) How does it feel to be shut down by the TEAM with 3rd goalie? :))

[@markuslofgren5661]

@@syd-eq4ps you wouldn’t be happy with who I support. For what he is he’s great, but he’s getting overrated like crazy. People saying he should replace Demko and making stories on how he’s the best Canucks goalie

[@romanzverev6594]

New russian goalie with latvian citizenship in NHL

[@BAG-es6qy]

Sit chill in your Russia. He never been in Russia lol 😂😂😂😂

[@mrw3805]

Start with wikipedia, not with statements.

[@July16july]

This guy hates Latvia you can tell. Why do Russians hate Latvia so much, i guess they are upset that Latvia wanted independence from them. But so did every single country from former Soviet Union apart from maybe Belarus.

[@July16july]

This guy hates Latvia you can tell.

[@July16july]

This guy doesn’t like Latvia, what a h@ter.
