Canada-Russia Challenge: Game 3

I was able to attend both games of the Canada-Russia Challenge in Halifax, and instead of boring you with a recap of the game, I''ll bore you with my thoughts on it. Here are my thoughts on Game 3.

Russia 6 - Canada 5

• Not relevant to the game, but their were two guys in front of me (one in a Leafs jersey, the other in a New England Patriots jersey), never in my life have I ever wanted to use two people as shoe wipes as much as I have in that moment.
• Two of Russia's goals were pretty weak, how Canada's goalie didn't stop them is baffling.
• Daniil Romantsev's saucer pass on Russia's second goal was a thing of beauty.
• Funny moment: On one of Canada's offsides, the puck was near the Russian blue line and two Canadian players did a ""You take it" "No, you take it" routine. 
• Thee Ryan Connection (Murray and Murphy) was working in the first period.
• Have to feel bad for Canada on Russia's fourth goal. A player got shot by a teammate, then Russia turns it up ice for an odd man rush that is eventually a goal.
• Both goalies had near highlight-reel saves in the second period.
• I didn't realize it until Canada's fifth goal, but their goal song (or one of them) was Chelsea Dagger. Somewhere, Luongo is weeping.
