COLOGNE, Germany -- Evgeni Malkin scored twice, and Russia beat Canada again at the world ice hockey championship, eliminating the Olympic champion with a convincing 5-2 win Thursday night.
Maxim Afinogenov, Pavel Datsyuk and Sergei Fedorov added the others for Russia in a showdown with Canada that featured big hits and a fair share of bad blood.
(It wasn't Canada's top-notch squad. But a win's a win.)
Fedorov is starting to get up into Chris Chelios territory. (Well, no, Chelios is 48, Fedorov is 41. But he's still playing top level hockey. I'm amazed given the roughness of hockey how some players can make it into their forties and still contribute. I guess it's the short shifts.
Or maybe it's the ladies.
Fedorov and some girl named Anna; I think she played pro tennis for awhile
