The 18-year-old had his second-consecutive two-goal, three-point game of the World Championship in Finland's 5-1 win over Germany on Sunday.
The latest offensive display moved him into first in tournament scoring, ahead of teammate Mikael Granlund, but more importantly, he kept his promise to his mother that he would score two goals.
Laine's six points in the tournament through two games also gives him a share of the tournament's all-time record for points by an 18-year-old. A record he is almost certain to surpass with five more games remaining before the medal round.
