Everyone knows that the iconic American singer Elvis Presley was an extraordinary entertainer, and Elvis Merzļikins takes after his fabled namesake.

People worldwide love the 30-year-old goalkeeper’s personality and style on ice and off it.

“We are delighted to partner with Elvis to thrill Latvian ice hockey fans. OlyBet has supported ice hockey in Latvia for many years and brought the NHL Stanley Cup to Latvia for the first time and supported the National Team on the way to bronze in last year’s IIHF World Championships. This partnership with Elvis will bring ice hockey fans closer to the top-level of world competitions and sports excitement that only OlyBet delivers,” Corey Plummer, CEO of OlyBet Group, said.
