Canada 3, Finland 3

Canada Hockey

Rick Nash and Patrick Marleau scored 51 seconds apart in the third period to lead Canada to a 3-3 comeback tie with Finland at the IIHF world hockey championship.  It wasn't supposed to be this way.  We're supposed to beat Finland who is without Saku Koivu, Tuomo Ruutu, Jere Lehtinen, Teemu Selanne and goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff.

The tie gives us five points which puts us in second place in Group F, behind Sweden who is playing the USA right now.  We should be okay, but we'd better start winning again if we intend on winning this tournament for the third year in a row.
