This year the Estonian team played the Toronto Lithuanians in the championship match. The two teams arrived there by defeating the Latvians 5-1 (Estonians) and 5-2 (Lithuanians), and then playing each other in a tight game where the Estonians were victorious 4-3.
The Championship game was a close checking affair for 2 periods with the Estonians holding a slim 2 -1 lead going into the 3rd period. Then in the last period, young gun Stefan Valvur scored 3 goals in 6 minutes resulting in the Estonians going home with a 5-1 victory, and the Baltic Cup!.
