So much for the Canadians running away with this game. Russia has scored twice in 13 seconds to make this gold medal game competitive again. Artemi Panarin scored the first goal at the 2:33 mark in the third period, assisted by Denis Golubev and Maxim Berezin, while Maxim Kitsyn scored the second goal at the 2:46 mark, assisted by Yevgeni Kuznetsov and Sergei Kalinin.
2011 WJC, Canada Vs. Russia: Russians Find The Scoreboard Twice In Third, Canada Leads 3-2
The Russians are starting to drive to the net more and create the scoring chances that were missing through the first two periods and are starting to make Canadian goaltender Mark Visentin work, something he has had trouble with throughout the tournament. The Russians have made comebacks before in this tournament, their last against Finland in the quarterfinals.
Canada must continue their style of play they played in the first two periods and find a way to beat Igor Bobkov in the third period to keep this game safely in hand.
