U20: 4 Nations tournament in Vierumäki, FIN 24-26 aug

Well, Finland won 6-1 all of a sudden, after a bad start and me thinking "well here we go again". A nice change of pace.

Russia wins in OT 6-5. Manukyan and Kayumov both with 2-goal games, Kayumov also assisted on Maltsev's OT goal.

This tiny Armenian guy sure is making a case for himself. Not a bad tournament for him.

I still doubt he makes it, there are a lot of good options at forward for this generation.

EDIT: I just noticed that Czechs actually won the tournament despite losing the game. Both teams finished with 7 points, but Czechs had more regulation wins and better goal-differential. Very good showing for them.
