Russia rolled over Norway in the World Cup opening – Dagbladet.no

See goals in the video window over!

Måltyven Patrick Thoresen put two, but against fast opponents and former teammates were Norway and Thoresen small.

World Cup opening Friday ended with 2-6 loss to Russia in the elite World Cup hockey Friday night. No less than four of Thoresens teammates in SKA St. Petersburg subscribed on the scoring list.

Lars Volden from SHL clear Rögle took the Norwegian cage, and he got up early more than enough to keep us busy.

Russia’s 1-0 goal came just over a minute after the NHL relevant Andreas Martinsen got himself Norway’s first expulsion after 1:40 minutes played. Martinsen barely got onto the ice again until it was 2-0 to the Russians. All Russians undertook did twice as fast as Norway.

Tempo difference was striking, and strictly speaking, it was not surprising for a team that had profusion of NHL players and who also have a few more lurking for the upcoming matches. Russia is the reigning world champions and showed why occasionally against Norway.



Warner

The 1-0 goal came when Patrick Thoresen former SKA. St. Petersburg colleague Vadim Sjipatsjov. Thoresen warned against too many penalties at the start of the game, because he knew how dangerous their previous number of our comrades in SKA was in hideout games.

Star player Ilja Kovaltsjuk, also from SKA. St. Petersburg, assisted on both 1-0 and 2-0. The second goal was Artyom Anisimov from Columbus Blue Jackets behind.

Although not a hot Norwegian captain Ole-Kristian Tollefsen and sounds of AC / DC’s Highway to Hell managed to incite Norwegians significantly, and with 4:46 minutes left in the 1st period put the third for the Russians . This time it was Danis Zaripov turn.

Soon after came the 4-0 and the goal stood Viktor Tikhonov behind. And yes, he is the grandson of the late coach legend of the same name, Viktor Tikhonov. Young Tikhonov also belong to SKA. St. Petersburg.

It was not coincidental that SKA. St. Petersburg won the KHL playoffs in Russia for only a few days ago.



Two quick

Norway came far from stooping into the 2nd period. Just 25 seconds were played when Mathis Olimb set up Patrick Thoresen, and the upcoming Djurgården player scored his first goal in the tournament.

Six minutes later served Olimb same man again, and Thoresen got away a shot that went through the Russian goalkeeper Sergei Bobrovskij and the goal. Norway’s rally did not last long.

First scored Skaset Maxim Tsjudinov and then it was 6-2 after Skaset Artemi Panarin contributed with his. 3rd period was naturally not as fast-paced, and it was with the goals were scored in the first two periods. Russia stood without the three star players Evgeni Malkin (Pittsburgh Penguins), Vladimir Tasarenko (St. Louis Blues) and Nikolaj Kuljomin (New York Islanders).

They arrived Ostrava appeared late Friday and was thus not relevant for game against Norway.

Saturday should Norway against the United States. The World Cup opened to beat Finland with strong 5-1 earlier Friday night.
