Hello everyone and welcome to the unveiling of the Latvian roster.

Before I start, I would like to first thank slash for accepting my application to do this again. The World Juniors is always a great way to turn the offseason into something a little bit more interesting. Incorporating Nationalities into a tourney is something I find exciting, which is why I decided to be the GM once again. I hope our result this year will be better than last seasons. Was a disappointing exit and we also lost a couple of guys this season due to eligibility rules.

First off, I would like to introduce the 2 additions to Latvians roster.
Adding players like Boris Poroshenko and Billy Sorokin in nets will be a great boost to our nation in this tournament and for future ones aswell. Glad to have you guys on board and hope we get some medals with you guys on our roster.

So, without dragging this on any longer.

Boris Poroshenko
Kristers Dzelme
