With a World Hockey Championship gold medal on the line against Team Canada, it seems the Russians should have dressed their highest-scoring player on Sunday.

And no, that player isn't NHL goal-scoring champion Alex Ovechkin. It's Vladimir Putin.

Hockey fans mocked Russian President Vladimir Putin and his supposed goal-scoring talents on Sunday, after the Russian national team scored only one goal in an embarrassing 6-1 loss to Canada in the gold medal game.

The World Championship loss came one day after Putin scored eight goals against Russian ex-NHLers in government-run exhibition game in Sochi. Video from the exhibition game shows the 62-year-old coasting through his opponents before burying expert passes from the likes of former NHL star Pavel Bure and Valeri Kamensky.
