After a disappointing semifinal loss to Finland, Team Russia made sure they gave their home fans something to cheer about Sunday with a dominant performance against the United States, taking the bronze medal with a 7-2 win.

Team captain Pavel Datsyuk led the way with three assists, while Chicago Blackhawks forward Artemi Panarin and KHL leading scorer Sergei Mozyakin also recorded three-point nights.

Despite his impressive performance, the 37-year-old Detroit Red Wings star told TSN's Darren Dreger he hasn't yet made a decision on his future in the NHL.

Russia's incredible offense chased American starter Keith Kinkaid from the net after two periods of work, where he allowed five goals on 17 shots. He was replaced in goal by Mike Condon.

Boston Bruins forward Frank Vatrano scored both goals for the United States, while Washington Capitals stars Alex Ovechkin and Evgeny Kuznetsov were both, surprisingly, held off the scoresheet for Russia.

After 15 postseason games, Marc-Andre Fleury will finally get his first start.

The veteran netminder was in the starter's net, and was the first goalie off the ice at the Pittsburgh Penguins' morning skate Sunday. Following the skate, head coach Mike Sullivan announced Fleury will start Game 5, meaning Matt Murray will remain benched after being pulled in Game 4.

Fleury made his 2016 playoff debut Friday, after Murray allowed four unanswered goals on 30 shots. The 31-year-old has not started a game since suffering his second concussion of the season during a March 31 start against the Nashville Predators.

In 99 career postseason games, Fleury has an underwhelming .906 save percentage, but that mark is .920 since 2014 - despite an 8-10 record.

Outsourced from the NHL's asset mill long ago, Troy Brouwer has firsthand knowledge on what a long, abnormally productive postseason performance can do for one's biweekly pay stub.

Instead of realizing his inflated worth alongside former teammates with the Chicago Blackhawks (or the Washington Capitals, for that matter), however, Brouwer's cashing in several seasons later with the Central Division rival St. Louis Blues.

Brouwer scored his sixth and seventh goals this postseason in Saturday's critical Game 4, leading St. Louis to a 6-3 win over the San Jose Sharks to even the Western Conference final at two games apiece.

His total through 18 games not only matches Vladimir Tarasenko and David Backes for the team lead, but it also equals the output from his previous 78 games in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

After the win, Brouwer opened up about the challenge he received from management when he was brought to St. Louis, and how it's helped him succeed this spring.

"I had a lot of expectations on me this year," Brouwer said, "with what (GM Doug Armstrong) has expected from me when he traded for me. Telling me that my season was going to be judged on how I handled myself, and how I played in the playoffs and down the stretch.

"When you have expectations like that on you, you want to perform your best."

You can bet there will similar dialogue this summer when Brouwer decides on his playing future. Only his performance this spring will heighten the expectation, from wherever the source.
