Jost, Zadorov Pick Up Medals at 2019 World Championship

Gold Medal Game: Finland (3) vs. Canada (1)

Canada's Shea Theodore (Vegas Golden Knights) opened the game's scoring at 10:02 of the first period, but it ended up being the only marker of the contest for the country.
Marko Anttila tied the outing early in the second period and then found the back of the cage again to give Finland the lead 2:25 into the third frame. Harri Pesonen scored with 4:06 remaining to add insurance to the Finns' title hopes.

Canada doubled Finland's shot total in the outing, holding a 44-22 edge, but goalie Kevin Lankinen stopped every puck he faced in the final 49-plus minutes.
Colorado Avalanche forward Tyson Jost of Team Canada finished his second career World Championship with two assists in eight games and picked up his first medal at the senior level. He was the squad's 13th forward in the championship game.
The silver medal for Canada marks the country's fourth podium in the last five years. Prior to its current run that started in 2015, the Canadians hadn't medaled in five consecutive tournaments (2010-2014).

Team Russia won 3-2 in a shootout on Sunday at Ondrej Nepela Arena in Bratislava, Slovakia, for its 11th World Championship medal in the last 15 years.
Czech Republic outshot Russia 50-31 in the contest but was unable to find the back of the net in the third period, the 20-minute overtime and shootout. Russia's Nikita Gusev (Vegas Golden Knights) and Ilya Kovalchuk (Los Angeles Kings) were the only two players to score in the best-of-five shootout.
