Two mistakes was all it took. An opportunistic
Russia took advantage of Canadian errors and defeated Canada 2-1 to win
gold for the second year in a row against its archrivals. Alexander
Radulov scored the second-period winner.
Midway through the first period Canadian defenceman
Braydon Coburn shot the puck out of the rink in his own end, and Oleg
Saprykin capitalized on the ensuing power play. Midway through the
second period, Coburn pinched unwisely at the Russian blueline, leading
to Radulov,s winner.
"It was like a playoff game," Radulov said. "Instead

pounded France 7-2.
It probably wasn,t the greatest of nights to
be a goalie at either end of the rink. For France,s Eddy Ferhi, it was
