I only thought the Leafs could do this, what a disappointment for our boys tonight. :(

Very disappointing indeed. Inexcusable to blow a 3 goal lead. Goaltending was once again suspect as it has been throughout the tournament.

You could see it coming as they got too over confident with their 3 goal lead and sat back and did not work as hard as they had in their other games.

Yup, you can see Canada laying off the body in the 2nd period. Once you lose momemtum it's tough to get it back. Russians had the momentum going into the 3rd.

Just brutal!!! No hustle in the 3rd at all, just sitting back and letting the Russians walk all over them. As soon as they switched goaltenders it was the momentum switch they needed

Coaches have to accept the majority of the blame; they should have adjusted but didn't. On the positive, Braydon Schenn played with a separated shoulder after injuring it in the quarter final game.
