These are definitely historic moments that are going to be neat to see when we’re over there,” said MacTavish. One of those individuals is Tasos Doganis, who made the trip to Edmonton last year to watch the team beat Costa Rica and Mexico in freezing cold temperatures, as well as a trip to Hamilton where he saw the team beat the United States.
