Vasas Budapest Stars U20 edged the Icehawks Hockey Club 5-4 in overtime, a game that needed an extra period after the teams traded leads from the second onward. The hosts scored the only goal of overtime to settle it.
Vasas took the first period 1-0, then the game broke open in the second: the Icehawks won that frame 3-2 to level it 3-3 after 40 minutes. Each side scored once in the third for 4-4, and the turning point was simply that Vasas never trailed by more than a goal.
The decisive number is the overtime period itself — 1-0 Vasas, the fifth goal of their night against four conceded. With scoring details not available, the margin tells the story: three goals allowed in the middle period nearly cost them, and they still found the last one.
