Former Calgary Flames goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff finds himself back in the sport less than a year after retiring from the NHL.
The 37-year-old has been tabbed to coach the goalies for Finland's under-20 national team, per Juha Hiitela of Sanomat.
Kiprusoff represented Finland's U-20 program at the 1995 and 1996 World Junior Championships before joining the senior team in 1999.
He won three silver medals at the international level before backstopping Finland to a bronze at the 2010 Olympics.
