C&P
Canada and Russia met in the final of the 2010/11 World Juniors Hockey Championship and the Canadians entered as a noted favorite to win. After storming through the first two periods to take a 3-0 lead there was little to suggest anything except for Canadian gold however the third period can only be described as one thing: shocking.

Overconfidence is the biggest lead killer in hockey and the Canadians did not play with any urgency in the third period. Russia stormed back to take the gold medal away from Canada with 5 unanswered goals and the final score ended at 5-3 for Russia.

Igor Bobkov, who did not even start the game in net for Russia, took away the player of the game honors as his relief in net gave Russia the stability that they needed.

Everyone takes their lumps and Canadian hockey took a big one as the juniors choked big time in front of a packed pro-Canadian arena in Buffalo, just south of Ontario.
