To be honest with you, I didnt see the replay. But I felt the touch. I dont know if it was the puck or the stick. I definitely felt the touch on my hand on my stick.The Russians tested Markstrom early;?Vladimir Tarasenko one-timed a shot off Evgeni Malkins faceoff win, but Markstrom was able to get his left pad on the puck and steer it aside just 30 seconds into the game.Moments later, Tarasenko hit Markstrom in the mask with a shot that the Vancouver goalie was able to shake off.Landeskog got Sweden on the board with a power-play goal, one-timing Erik Karlssons pass over Bobrovskys blocker at 10:41 of the second period. Less than 2 minutes later, Hedman one-timed Carl Hagelins feed glove-side past Bobrovsky.Ovechkin scored with 33 seconds left in the third, putting a wrist shot from the point off the post and past a screened Markstrom.Swedish coach Rikard Gronberg was pleased with the way his team executed the prepared game plan following a 6-2 loss to Team Europe in pre-tournament competition Wednesday.[We] wanted to make sure their transition game didnt happen so quickly, Gronberg said.

He flew to Denver on Tuesday and had a medical examination that left the Rockies optimistic theres no serious damage. He was scheduled for an MRI later in the day. Manager Walt Weiss said the initial reports on Chatwood were "pretty good." The club will decide what to do after it gets the MRI results. Weiss said it would be tough for Chatwood to make his next scheduled start under the circumstances.

He was scheduled for an MRI later in the day that would give the Rockies a better idea of how long he might be out. "The initial reports sound pretty good," manager Walt Weiss said. "Well wait to hear what comes back from the MRI." Chatwood said hed never felt pain in his triceps until his start on Monday night. He first felt it on a pitch to Shin-Soo Choo in the third inning. It bothered the right-hander whenever he threw his fastball. Weiss took him out in the fifth as a precaution after Chatwood had thrown 64 pitches, giving up one run and four hits. Weiss said Chatwood would likely miss his next scheduled start on Saturday even if the MRI results bring good news. "I dont want to commit to that right now," Weiss said. "It would probably be tough to make his next start." The Rockies put closer Rafael Betancourt on the 15-day disabled list last weekend with a strained groin. ' ' '
