Ashton scored with 14 seconds left in the first to give the Canadians a two-goal cushion heading into the middle frame.
Nearing the midway point of that period, Schenn scored a one-timer from Marcus Foligno to the increase the lead to three and chase Shikin from the Russian net in favour of goalie Igor Bobkov.
With 4:29 left in the second, Russia's Vladimir Tarasenko had to be helped to the bench after a Canadian player's skate struck him inadvertently in the side of the head as Tarasenko fell to the ice.
