Damn, as I type that, Kassian takes a bad penalty and the Russkies tie it up.

3-3

Agreed. Great game.

Repped you back as promised. Just needed to spread the rep around.

Wow great effort by Bobkov, but follow the pinball shooting. 4-3 Canada.

 

[sTyLnK]

Another PP another goal. 5-3 now.

Russia needs work on the PK. Nice job, canucks.

Russians falling behind on goalie development...

True, and you have to expect Canada to be better than... well... everybody, but I think Russia is outskating them. Good signs for their future.

 

[OregonDucks]

i'd expect more from the Russians.

Is that "ROY" I see on the back of Canada's goalie's jersey? Any relation? I have to watch with sound off (I've got company and am being incredibly rude right now).

No relation whatsoever to St. Patrick.

Great goalie, but he's no Saint

I haven't seen Kabanov's name out there. So sad.

So much wasted talent! Kabanov has been burning bridges everywhere he goes on both sides of the ocean. I don't think he was ever considered for this team. Russians are still pretty bitter that he left the KHL to come play in the CHL. Then after he had a fallout with his Moncton Wildcats during last year's playoffs, he went back to play for the under 18 team in Russia, where he was soon released. The supposed reason they cut him? Because when he was in the GM's (or coach's office) he helped himself to some peanuts that were sitting in a bowl without asking first. Not joking. Obviously they were looking for even the smallest excuse to drop him.

What a save by Roy!!

That was pretty.

Foligno blows up a Russkie...Surprised no penalty was called.

Here's Patrick's son Jonathan who made headlines a few year ago, but not because of this video:

Did Jared Cowen go to power skating school? His skating is so much better than last year.

There's some icing on the cake...
