TORONTO -- When Corey Perry snuck the puck away from Andrei Markov and scored to give Canada a 4-2 lead in the third period of the World Cup of Hockey semifinal, it seemed to take goalie Sergei Bobrovsky a long time to get up.
He wasn't hurt.
Just weary.
The shot was the 41st of the night fired on him by Canadian skaters.
He had turned in the finest goaltending display in the tournament.
In the absence of much quality defense, he had kept his team not just close but at one point one goal ahead.
