OMSK, Russia (CP) - Canada's junior hockey team is looking for a sweep in Russia after winning Game 3 of their Super Series against the host country 6-2.
Kyle Turris, a New Westminster, B.C., product bound for the University of Wisconsin next season, and Stefan Legein of the Niagara IceDogs scored their third goals in as many games for Canada, which also got goals from Claude Giroux of the Gatineau Olympiques, Sam Gagner of the London Knights, Zach Boychuk of the Lethbridge Hurricanes and Colton Gillies of the Saskatoon Blades.
Canada had four power-play goals, including two to open the scoring. Goaltender Leland Irving of the Everett Silvertips got the victory.
Pavel Doronin's short-handed goal in the first period was Russia's first goal since the first period of the series-opener Monday in Ufa.
Russian goalie Semen Varlamov, a Washinton Capitals draft pick, suffered his second loss of the series and was replaced by Vadim Zhelobyuk to start the third period
