Kopitar made a beautiful behind the back pass for the game tying goal today.
"On the tying goal, Kopitar took the puck behind Hirsch's net and made a lovely behind-the-back pass to Sotlar, and he blasted a shot past the goalie's glove to make it 3-3. "
He had 2 assists and now has 7 points in 4 games at the World Championships. He is now 3rd overall in scoring, passing Ovechkin and Malkin and only trailing Crosby and Bergeron.
Slovenia has scored 11 goals in the tournament. Kopitar has 7 points, and thus played a part in 64% of their goals.
Canada has 25 goals and Crosby has 9 points, or had a hand in 36% of Canada's goals. Russia has 23 goals and Malkin and Ovechkin have 6 points each, or they have played a part in 26% of Russia's goals.
Consider that Slovenia's second best player probably would have trouble making the AHL and that Canada's and Russia's rosters are chock full of world class talent.
2 questions:
If Crosby, OR Malkin OR Ovechkin played on Slovenia, would they have 7 points in this tournament?
If Kopitar was on Canada or Russia, how many points would he leading the tournament by?
