Finland certainly has a flair for the dramatic in the IIHF World Junior Championship.
Forward Kasperi Kapanen, chosen in the first round of the 2014 NHL Draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins and later traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs, scored off a wraparound 1:33 into overtime to give Finland a 4-3 victory against Russia in the 2016 WJC at Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, Finland, on Tuesday.
It marked the second time in three years Finland celebrated a gold medal in overtime.
Defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (Buffalo Sabres) ended the 2014 WJC gold medal game against Sweden 9:42 into overtime.
