Mason McDonald Was Solid Against Russia (Again)

The sixth and final game between the Canadian Hockey League and the Russian national junior team was last night in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Team QMJHL beat the Russians 6-4, after initially building up a 4-0 lead early in the game and chasing the Russian goalie early-on.

Calgary Flames second round pick Mason McDonald was the QMJHL goalie. How'd he look? Well, he looked much like he did in Hockey Canada's Summer Showcase: he was solid, but I wouldn't say he stole the show.

McDonald was in net from bell-to-bell, playing the full 60 minutes against a Russian Selects team that was very similar to the group that he faced back in August.
