Dave Longstaff has announced his retirement from International Hockey today. A true gent of the sport, and what a career. He'll definitely be missed in Latvia and beyond. Thanks for everything Dave you did for the sport over the last 20-25 years, a real ambassador. twitter.com/TeamGBicehockey

Abiding image of Lobby will always be Kummu dumping him over the boards at Kdy when he played for the Warriors, and was still wearing a fishbowl that's how long ago that was!
Great player, probably didn't get the plaudits other did through the majority of his career, and a great servant to GB.

I think there has been some pressure from Guildford to make this decision. With Flames chasing the EPL title, I can see why they wouldn't want to lose such a valuable player for 2 weeks.

I don't on the basis that I see no other reason for making such a decision with such close proximity to a tournament
