 * HOLY CRAP KEEP KEEP KEEP ... no wait, I mean delete this horrid thing. No justification needed, really. — Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 08:55, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: Non-notable single game. There isn't even any true assertion of notability in the article itself. I can't see why it was declined at CSD. – Nurmsook!  talk...  09:24, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I'll just explain my rationale for declining the speedy. I felt, still feel in fact, that an international match is an inherent assertion of notability. I grant you that it wasn't mentioned specifically within the article. As the threshold for getting through a speedy is lower, I felt that this had just about enough, though it was always likely to fail an AfD, which appears to be the case.

 * Comment. I'm sure that this match is well-remembered by Latvian ice-hockey fans, but I don't see any evidence of historical notability other than the underdogs winning against the team that they would take the greatest pleasure in beating. It didn't have any effect on the overall competition, the 2003 Men's World Ice Hockey Championships, because it was a second round match in a group from which Russia progressed to the quarter-finals but Latvia were eliminated.
